Revision as of 14:25, 23 January 2006
Is the Death in "Good Omens" the same Death in Discworld or are they both just based on the same Death that is based on the tradational view of the personal Death in the West?
- The latter. Although there are some similarities, on account of both having been written by Terry Pratchett, they're two different takes on the Grim Reaper archetype, not the same character. —Paul A 01:42, 20 Aug 2003 (UTC)
I would like to modify this line:
- As Pratchett and Gaiman were living in different countries at the time, and as the writing of the book predated widespread use of the Internet, the collaboration took place largely over the telephone, with Pratchett (the more experienced novelist) doing the majority of the actual writing.
...with the following (changes in italics)...
- As Pratchett and Gaiman were living in different countries at the time, and as the writing of the book predated widespread use of the Internet, the collaboration took place largely over the telephone, with Pratchett holding the master copy and doing the majority of the actual writing.
My feelings are that the paranthetical comment "the more experienced novelist" is POV and isn't quite in the spirit of the original quote (available here).
