the only one I really didn't like was MacBest (I assume that's what it's called in english as well?), all the others were at least good, most more than that - I even tend to recommend Making Money to some of my Uni classes because it explains the way money gets its value very well while still being entertaining as heck...

MacBest is Wyrd Sisters.
I rather liked the TV adaptations myself.

I really must see if they are available as E-Books....."I was there the day Horus slew the Emperor".....

There was a cartoon production of Soul Music and another one of his books, I think the Macbeth parody? I enjoyed them. The made for TV live action miniseries of the Hogfather was actually done a lot better than I thought it would be (although the ice and bone castle collapsing was inadvertently funny, it screamed "our set is made of styrofoam! We stagehands are having fun throwing it around!"
My favourite books have always been the ones focusing on Death. So Reaper Man, Mort, Soul Music, Hogfather. (Haven't read Thief of Time yet.)Kabal of Venomed Dreams

Getting very excited for the Dark Eldar release now, the rules ar looking really great.
Ask not the EldarGal a question, for she will give you three answers, all of which are puns and terrifying to know. Back off man, I'm a feminist. Ia! Ia! Gloppal Snode!

It's gorgeous, armaments sound quite devastating also.
Plus it sounds like wyches might be getting a big boost (dodge works against overwatch and vehicles exploding) so that will be great.
