Just for the record, I thought Raising Steam (Terry Pratchett's latest) was amazing, finished it basically in one sitting. There was a break for some Haley-petting in the middle, as she was definitely in need of attention judging from the fact that she was rolling around on her back in the middle of the floor and snorting. Like you do.
Don't want to give spoilers, but if you're familiar with his work it's a Moist Von Lipwig novel. It also continues from earlier works in that goblins are involved in an integral and awesome way. There is also some cool gender stuff, really excited to see where that might go in future novels. *resists urge to say more*
JUST GO READ IT AND THEN WE CAN SQUEE.
