The Writer Guest of Honor was Terry Pratchett, one of Jen's favorite
authors. He created a world called Discworld, that's a flat round world
resting on the backs of four elephants who, in turn, rest on the back
of a giant space turtle. (You might get the idea that Terry's books
aren't entirely serious. You'd be right.)
Here's a caricature of Terry and his world that was hung in the main
Con room:
Here's a display table showing some of Terry's books:
There were three of those tables, all equally full. Yipes!
On Discworld, Terry created the city of Ankh-Morpork. Here are resin
statues of some of the more famous buildings in that city:
A close up of the pipe organ, being played by the Librarian of the
Unseen University. Whatever you do, don't accuse him of monkeying around
with it -- he's an orangutan with a temper.
More buildings, leading to the Unseen University complex.
