Had some spare time yesterdy and started to read Nation. Could not put it down!! Finished it all in one go! Fantastic story, a real good spin off for Mr Pratchett. It just goes to show what a marvellous imagination The Man has.Could not fault it,if you are a fan, for Om's sake read it.The ending is a proper lump in the throat job.I'm just sorry that I read it so quick.Should be made into a film.[/b]
