O_O Yes. I love the books. Every one is my favorite until I read the next one. " The Fifth Elephant " though holds a special place in my heart because it was the one that got me hooked.

My college roomate and I would spend hours reading the books outloud to each other.

My favorite character hands-down is Samuel Vimes because aside from being a character in a fantasy series he has to be one of the most " real " and honest characters I've ever encountered in reading. Though I wonder if we will see anymore of him after " Night Watch " which seemed to be a fitting epilogue for him. Right under him, Rincewind, Carrot, Lady Sybil and Tiffany all vie for second place ;)

My least favorite...oh eh...there's some I'm not so crazy about but I don't outright dislike them. The villians are even likable in a weird way.

The one I'm afraid I most identify with would probably be either Twoflower or Leonard De Quirm.

Even if I don't really get the 'anglish ' humor I laugh anyways {O)
