Meanwhile several of his novels have been made successfully for the small screen, in stop-motion, traditional animation and live-action. Some of these books were adapted in the ‘90s for the stage, three successful video games, and even a prog rock album. Pratchett even writes cinematically-almost all of his adult novels are written without chapters, skipping scene-to-scene just as a movie does. Though Pratchett has been adapted a handful of times for television, most recently with Amazon’s Good Omens (excellent) and BBC America’s The Watch (patchy), this will be the first true big-screen take on a Pratchett book*, which is frankly astonishing when you consider that Sir Terry has been a bestseller since the mid-‘80s, with a series of accessible and cinematic comic fantasy hits, most of which would lend themselves to the screen. release of The Amazing Maurice, a feature length adaptation of Terry Pratchett’s acclaimed 2001 YA novel. ![]() Flight by alyssa rose ivy5/28/2023 ![]() ![]() Perilous Light (The Afterglow Trilogy #2)Įnduring Light (The Afterglow Trilogy #3) The Hazards of Sleeping with a Friend (Hazards)īeckoning Light (The Afterglow Trilogy #1) The Hazards of Sex on the Beach (Hazards) ![]() ![]() The Hazards of a One Night Stand (Hazards) Hunt (The Grizzly Brothers Chronicles #1) Seduction’s Kiss (The Allure Chronicles #0.5)įorged in Stone (The Forged Chronicles #1)įorged in Fire (The Forged Chronicles #3) Photo and cover design by Sara Eirew Photographerįirst & Forever (The Crescent Chronicles #4) Any similarity to real persons, living or dead, is coincidental and not intended by the author.
