I notice something new every time I re-read a Pratchett that in retrospect seems like it should have been obvious, but I'm not sure if it was really intended to be caught by everyone on their first read.

Example: In Guards! Guards!, dragons are a metaphor for humans. That's actually said by characters in the text, twice I think, so that's a big hint right there. Still didn't catch it until, idk, the third time? And I don't feel too stupid about it. *shrug*

I miss a lot of stuff in Pratchett too, and while I may just be dim, I do think something about Pratchett's writing style makes it difficult to retain every subtlety he puts in his books. The stories are so stuffed full of a hundred different brands of parody and reference, and the fact that they're chapterless means you tend to break for a rest at odd points which makes it difficult to hold the narrative threads in your head.

That's what I like about Pratchett's writing... there's so much there that every time I reread a novel, I find something new or remember something cool I'd forgotten.
