- eatonphil 5y agoCool! A Terry Pratchett series I hadn't heard of.
- AnIdiotOnTheNet 5y agoIt was co-written by Stephen Baxter, and if you're familiar with either his or Pratchett's writing then sometimes it's a bit too obvious who wrote which parts, which for me at least led to a certain amount of immersion breaking dissonance. Additionally I would say that the series goes steadily downhill after the first book, but is still pretty good overall.
- masklinn 5y agoFor other fictional aircraft carrier airships, there was also the excellent Crimson Skies arcade flight sim, with Pandora. And didn't Riverworld have aircraft carrier airships? Or maybe just slaved / sibling airships? It's been decades since I last read that series.
