• Terry Pratchett does Christmas. Pratchett, like Tolkien, is interested in the origins of things, and here he prods a little at the origins of our mythical figures, Santa and the Tooth Fairy and their ilk. Susan Death is along for the ride, as is Death himself, both some of my very favorite Pratchett characters. There is a part where it strongly reminds me of The Nightmare Before Christmas. Death does a good Jack Skellington. Great book. It has a BBC movie version, too, in case you're a huge Pratchett fan like me, and don't know.

• It has quite a few reviews already, so I'll be brief. I'm re-reading it again this Christmas, and will probably do so for years to come when holiday shopping gets me down. When Death fills in for Father, sorry, Hogfather Christmas, the laughter is never long in coming.
