So sad :( RIP such an amazing mind taken too soon. <3
What!? Whatttt he wasnt that old. Ahhhhh my heart ;A; First apock, then one of my fav authors! I havent even had a chance to read the whole series. I guess its time. Still, I just....anhhhndjsdks
I've re-read 'Guards! Guards!' and 'Men at Arms' since hearing the news and it's just made me even more wistful. RIP.
Such a beautiful tribute item. ;w; Rest In Peace, Sir Terry Pratchett. </3 My bookshelf and my life was made immensely better by the addition of your work.
HOLY SHIT I SAW SOME INCREASED DISCWORLD POSTS BUT HAD NO IDEA D:
News app failed me
FUCK I need to commit to reading those now more than ever. I've always wanted to but never really knew where to start.

So pretty - thank you! And thank you to Mr.Pratchett for so many wonderful stories. Your intelligence and heart will be greatly missed.
I'm on my cell so I can't see the hover or description but in general this is appropriate in my life right now.
My father is a big Terry Pratchett fan, and we've got a lot of books at home! I knew this free item would be a tribute to him! And the background it gives it just beautiful! :)
RIP Terry Pratchett
RIP Terry Pratchett
I loved his sense of humour, and I actually only read his books because my Mum had them. I was surprised to hear about his death because I don't think he was that old (60's, maybe?) and I thought that what he had couldn't kill you, it just made you lose your memory. I heard he wasn't in the middle of writing a book when it happened so I suppose that's good. I think my Mum must be really affected by it, though. I'm glad Subeta does these items not just for actors and musicians but also writers as well.
I absolutely love this. Thank you so much! Terry Pratchett's works have been part of my childhood (my parents are huge fans) and also my adult life and I really appreciate this tribute!
A truly fitting tribute.
Farewell, Sir Pratchett, and thank you for the truly wonderful worlds you created.

I was wondering what the tribute item would be - an hourglass is perfect.
You will be missed, Sir Terry Pratchett. Rest in peace.

Terry Pratchett is definitely one of my favourite authors.
It is a terrible loss to the world now that he is gone.
I suppose there is comfort to know that, with his health problems over the years, at least the pain is over. Finally he is free, and he can join all the other legends that we've lost in the last year in that better place.
Rest In Peace, Sir Terry Pratchett!

Easily my favorite author. Possibly the only time I've cried when hearing a famous person died. Perfect tribute too.
i heard about this earlier so i knew exactly who this was for; despite having never read a lot of his work, i always saw his books around and have always meant to get into them so in a way they were sorta present throughout my childhood anyway? if that makes sense? so yeah, to hear about his passing was very very sad.
also a beautiful, lovely item, thanks subeta. c:

I'd read all of his Discworld books and always found it rather...admirable...in a way, how he just continued to write despite his ailing physical and mental health. Thank you for this item, Subeta.
For those of you who do not get the reference...the Dark Desert is a place referenced in several of Prattchett's Discworld books. It is where many souls go after they die and they have to traverse it, alone, to get to their desired afterlife.
Also, there were the final, posthumous tweets on Prattchett's Twitter account, which announced his demise:
"AT LAST, SIR TERRY, WE MUST WALK TOGETHER."
"Terry took Death's arm and followed him through the doors and on to the black desert under the endless night."
"The End."

lovely backdrop(thank you for giving us a lot of uses out of it) and great tribute. RIP
I have such fond memories of playing the Discworld game back then with my BF. He had such a great humor in his books. He'll be missed.
Thank you for this. I knew he wasn't going to be around much longer, but it's still so depressing. :(
Aw, he was one of my favorite authors. :(
RIP, Terry Pratchett. He was an amazing writer~

I put down "The Truth" before I went to sleep last night and woke up to this news. Devastated. I'm glad he went peacefully, and that he left so many amazing stories behind.
I was very sad to learn of his passing yesterday. For me, his books were truly one of the worlds greatests gifts.
Thank you for this amazing tribute. The background is beautiful and so fitting. Sir Terry will be sadly missed, my heart and prayers go out to his wife and daughter.
Oh Terry. :( I grew up with your books and the world is a more dismal place for your absence.
Beautiful tribute.
Beautiful tribute.
I've actually never really read anything by him that I can remember but I've inspired to. Rest in peace to him. And thank you staff for the beautiful background.
My heart is broken..
Thank you for the tribute item, as others have already said, it is lovely.

I didn't know this was a tribute item and have no clue what it's about, but it's a nice background. Just wish I could see the details in it, as it looks mostly black on my computer. Thanks.
Wonderful tribute to such a wonderful person. A big thanks to Sir Pratchett for the childhood his books gave many.
"The ideal death, I think, is what was the ideal Victorian death, you know, with your grandchildren around you, a bit of sobbing. And you say goodbye to your loved ones, making certain that one of them has been left behind to look after the shop."

Discworld is one of the coolest place I've ever been. Thank you sir Pratchett for taking me there.
I have this inside joke with my friend (and any other fan who gets the reference) about how dangerous libraries are.

What a beautiful tribute item. I must admit, I only just learned about Terry Pratchett recently, but his books seem very interesting. I should go look up his books sometime.
I ashamed to admit I was not familiar with this person. Maybe I know some of his works. I need to Google him. Thanks to Subeta for once again giving us something to remember someone else's passing. It is so kind to do tributes.
My Boyfriend and I wee just talking about Sir Pratchett's work this Wednesday and then he left us yesterday. I've now vowed to read his books, since I never got the chance when I was younger.
I honestly hadn't expected this, it makes me so impossibly happy that it happened. The artist did an amazing job on this one, I'll treasure it. And for those that are just finding out about sir Pratchett, you have such wonders, such laughter and yes, so many tears and thoughts ahead of you, I am a little envious. Check out 'Mark Reads' for his discworld books, or just go forth and find them at the bookstore.
I just learned about Discworld a few days ago and was planning to start reading it. :(
This item is beautiful.

thank you for another fitting tribute, a sad loss to the world of books, I really love his discworld books, I treasure my signed copies even more now
I'm not crying, you're crying.
Thank you, you guys. This is beautiful, and a touching tribute to a personal hero of mine.

What a gorgeous backdrop.
I'm afraid I don't know who Terry Pratchett is, but may he rest in peace.
I'll have to see about finding some of the books he wrote for sure.

Thank you for this, I was so sad to hear this yesterday, I went to one of his book signings, and when he asked who it was for, I stupidly said 'me' he just looked at me and gave a big sigh lol. I think he must have slept in that hat.
How sad but a beautiful tribute. Thank you Subeta for being so wonderful. (I should go look up their books...)
thank you for doing this ^^ he was one of my favourite authors and i was in tears when i found out what happened. ;-;
Oh my gosh! It's beautiful! Thank you for making it a free gift instead of putting it in BHH. :D
