The Shepherd's Crown - Book Review

The Shepherd's Crown is the last book by Terry Pratchett in the Discworld. I've read a ton of the novel, mostly a few years ago when I first started following the series. I haven't read most of the latest. The book is good, as usual, although not really in the scale it'd need to truly be a satisfying end for the series - which could only be possible if it was an epic. Still, very enjoyable. I'd like to see the series continue with other writers, but that seems unlikely right now. It reminds me of the trilogy of new Foundation books by Bear, Brin and Benford which were pretty good and took it on innovative paths... I imagine a lot of people will instead think of the new books in the Dune series by his son - some of which I personally liked but that were really battered for not being as good as the original...
