    No, he's welsh, she is english, he works for a big big french company and they live in Paris. Pretty much sums it up, and he doesn't want to move back to the UK, and I think they're going to live in French speaking Switzerland next.

    Space Raptor was having a terrible day. Having put itself its physical shell in to hibernation so that its mind could explore higher dimensions, it suddenly woke to discover itself infested with a tiny filthy race of primitive beings calling themselves KAALDARITH.

    The name had to be shouted apparently. Everything they said had to be shouted. His biometallic arteries echoed with their shouts. Space Raptor was getting a headache.

    The little idiots had caused him to crash in to a planet. They'd pulled apart his nervous system, hacked his ganglia, he was trapped, helpless in his own body.

    And now warning bells were screaming at him, some sort of flood of radiation. If only he could get his external sensors back on line.

    At least they seemed to be killing each other off now. Maybe the problem would sort itself out if he was just patient for a few short decades. In the meantime, he would see if he couldn't get the gene-factories back on line. A well designed virus or two, and Space Raptor would have silence again, and time to repair its physical shell.

    The guards series are pretty much the greatest books ever written.

    Night Watch, Guards! Guards!, Going Postal, Equal Rites, and Monstrous Regiment are my top favorites. I rather like Lords and Ladies and Thief of Time as well.

    Never read Equal Rites, Lords and Ladies, or Monstrous Regiment, the other four are incredible though, as is Making Money and The Truth. Vetinari taking nobby and colon off in Jingo is pretty great, and Thud! and the Fifth Elephant have some of the most epic endings of any book ever.
    Reading to his son whlst in a cave and Firework fetch ftw

    He does not make Carrot epic enough any more though, he's made him kind of weaker through each book, which I dislike as I always thought he was the superhuman hero parody.

    How [strike]have I[/strike] has the good captain deteriorated? If anything, he's grown wiser in the ways of Ankh-Morpork.

    I love the way he has been made more intricate and intelligent definitely, the really subtle hints of how he seems to be playing everyone else as idiots with a great act covering his real strength really makes him an interesting character. But having
    Anguas brother whoop him so easily was just a little annoying, seeing as he once kicked the crap out a of a whole bar and knocked a troll out with one punch, and it was even made out in the books as though someone like Detritus could take a werewolf. I know he lost a little because he was following those stupid Lawrence de Fantallier rules of fair fighting, but I just thought he could have put up a better fight judging by his past experiences of fighting.
    Interesting point, but
    Carrot is very smart and very strong. Up until now, it's been rare that he's run into anyone with either characteristic, let alone both. Wolf took him because he knew how to handle Carrot better than Carrot knew how to handle him.
