BTW, Nice Vance-ian name you have here.

itâs the fury that was the engine that powered Discworld.
I donât know if it was fury that powered his writing, but I have to say that it was his obvious deep and abiding affection for almost every one of his characters, despite his full recognition of their multitude of flaws, that truly made me love Pratchett.
While there was the occasional true villain in his books, what truly set him apart was his gentleness and fondness for humanity, even as he made acknowledged and made light of our short-comings.
Also, there are very few who can have me laughing and weeping in the space of a paragraph. He will be greatly missed.
