A question that regularly pops up is: I'm enjoying Pratchett, what else is out there I could possibly enjoy? This page is here to help you. If you like Pratchett's sort of humour, and want something more visual than a book, these works are recommended by the fans.

David Reddick

  • David Reddick's Legend of Bill is a long-running webcomic featuring the adventures of an amiable but short-on-brains barbarian called Bill, who one day tires of his safe office job in the accountancy department of a local evil warlord. On a whim, he throws over his boring job auditing invoices and goes out adventuring, with his friend Frank the Blue Dragon - who turns out to be the real brains of the partnership. On the way they learn it isn't all about the unfortunately named dragonburgers and the chocolate milk shakes, the man's drink that Bill so loves in his usual bar, the Wet Gill. They learn about orcs, ogres, wizards, magic users, seductive sorceresses (one of whom takes a big shine to Bill) and fearsome pink-haired warrior princesses called Gina. Along he way the series generated two spin-offs: the Gnome Service(about a race of shy, retiring, magic-users whose job is to audit everything and give reality a poke when it needs it) and Barwench Tales, revolving around a typical tavern wench who is clearly in the wrong job: it is discovered she was trained as a lethal psychotic Assassin for whom pulling pints and dodging pinched bottoms is not an advisable career change. Her notions of good customer service are somewhat basic...

[Legend_Of_Bill] is found here along with its spinoffs.
