Hogfather - Discworld, Bk 20
Author: Terry Pratchett

I love love love this one by Terry Pratchett. It's one of my favorites by him. The hogfather (Discworld equivalent to Santa Claus, only his sleigh is pulled by giant hogs lol) is kidnapped and the Grim Reaper (who, ironically, is a real sweetheart) has to step in for him and deliver presents to the children on Hogswatch night. It's HILARIOUS, especially when he has to make an appearance at a mall for the little kids and one of his giant hogs ends up peeing all over the floor. Definitely read this!!

British edition of the Discworld novel Hogfather. The 20th discworld novel is a festive feast with a dash of Pratchett humor.

This was a good Christmas fantasy book. I enjoyed the scenes with Death trying to do the right thing. I also liked the scenes with the wizards and their trying not to think of new gods and fairies.

Love Terry Pratchett's Discworld stuff. In this story Death takes over as the Hogfather. Absolutely Hilarious!!

This is one of Pratchetts best reads. Many funny and thought provoking moments. My only saddness is that there isn't more of this stuff to read.

Very cool book. Who'd a thought the scariest/creapiest character of all time, would be named, Teatime.

any book with death as the lead character is already starting out on the right foot. Exactly what I would expect and love about terry pratchit!
