★★★★ Scotsgay
"We leave the Gilded Balloon, even more determined than ever to continue to speak the name of Terry Pratchett, and do as he did – tell stories [not necessarily 100% true, but GOOD stories], choose how we want to tell our own stories, and keep Terry Pratchett the man and the author alive in our minds and our hearts."

★★★★ The Reviews Hub
