Pratchett is a good writer. Underrated, because it's "only" fantasy. The story lines are better than people think, and he has created some amazing characters.
Personal favorite : Granny Weatherwax

i really like death he is so cool! your right he is under rated. his storys are wickedly funny and some of his plots and storylines are ingenius and far better than most of the stuff that is classed as 'literature'
