The Long Earth (The Long Earth, #1)

A bit of a disappointment. An interesting premise, and glimmers of the concept being taken in interesting directions (specifically to do with who owns the land parallel to your house, for example), but I didn't really feel like the story went anywhere. And the story definitely lacked Pratchett's trademark humour. (Which I guess is fine - there's nothing saying the man has to write funny. Or maybe this just proves that Pratchett didn't dance behind Gaiman, sprinkling the jokes in [b:Good Omens: The Nice and Accurate Prophecies of Agnes Nutter, Witch|12067|Good Omens The Nice and Accurate Prophecies of Agnes Nutter, Witch|Terry Pratchett|http://photo.goodreads.com/books/1327875267s/12067.jpg|4110990]). Another letdown - I felt like the book opened more questions than it answered. Maybe it's a setup for a series and I just didn't get the memo.
