Yes I watched the Hogfather, it was fantastic kept very close to the book. I have every Discworld novel Terry Pratchett has written, calendars, diarys, figures, bookmarks, films (there were also 2 cartoon films done) pictures, badges, t-shirts, jewellery etc etc etc 
(Now I sound like a complete freak :shock: )
One I liked of James Herbert was Others (nothing like the film) It was very interesting if some what warped

I have quite a few of his books, mainly the Sharpe series. I like his style of writing because he uses actual historical fact and moulds the story around it. |

I have just finished reading his trilogy about Thomas Of Hookton - about a medieval archer and his quests - Harlequin, Vagabond and Heretic - They were fantastic and as you say he uses historical facts to mould his story around
