How do y’all feel about continuing a series after an author dies? To me, I think one last book can be written to end it, but the series should rest with the author, just my thoughts though. I’m in the middle of a series right now and some random lady is “finishing” it, but she has written like 7 books that show no end. I’m not mad, but I just want to feel the satisfaction of completing a series and having the whole collection.
Still haven’t read the last Terry Pratchett book. Killed my love of reading, which goes against everything he’d probably want. I can’t imagine anyone finishing any of those stories.
I haven’t either! It’s there, my husband has read it. I just can’t!
He specifically didn’t want anybody to take over. Not even his daughter who also writes (but for video games). His unfinished works and ideas were literally steam rolled as his last wishes. It was hard to find a steam roller but they did it. RIP Pterry.
I did read the last book… but the last last book, that was published this year, with old unknown stories from earlier in his career, that one I’m still cherishing. It was such an unexpected gift that I am just happy to have the book.
If you mean Shepherd’s Crown, o highly recommend you read it. Unlike the two or three books that preceded it, it still sounds like Pratchett and, in my opinion, was his way of saying goodbye.
I really don’t understand all these people not reading the last book, or not watching the last episode, or not finishing games they like. Are you just afraid of closure?
