Me neither.

What type of books are they? There certainly seem to be a lot of them.

They started out as straight up parodies of fantasy, but evolved a very human and often dark touch. I always recommend people start with Guards! Guards! and read the City Watch series in order. Night Watch is my favourite novel ever.

Would this be the correct thread to discuss the movie R.I.P.D?
