I just finished Wintersmith by Terry Pratchett this weekend. Of the 30+ Discworld books I've read, the books in the Tiffany Aching arc have been my favorites. I was a little disappointed by this one, though. I felt like I was just starting to get into the "good part" when the novel ended. Maybe because it's a children's book, it doesn't go quite as in depth as some of Pratchett's other novels.
Speaking of things ending too soon -- for those who enjoyed the His Dark Materials trilogy, I'd recommend Lyra's Oxford by Philip Pullman. It features a short story, "Lyra and the Birds," along with some other materials like a map of Oxford. It's not long by any means, but just long enough to draw you back in to Lyra's world for a while...
