      I have read all of his Discworld books and some of his other stuff. The book that is just quotes from the Discworld books is 36 pages long.

        I've enjoyed several of his books, with tons more left to read. Sad day indeed.

          EDIT: 360 pages

          It looks like Terry is not quite done. There is at least one and perhaps two more books in the Long Earth series with Stephen Baxter. Normally manuscripts "found" after an author's death aren't very good and hence the author never having them published. Pirate Lattitudes by Michael Crichton comes to mind. Long Earth is a collaboration so perhaps the quality will still be there.
