My newest nonfiction release, Only Footnotes, is now in stores.
More than one person over on the Fediverse has informed me that this makes this book and/or my ouvre Pratchett-complete. Which I gather is something like Turing-complete, but cooler.
In case you missed it, or doubted that it was a real thing, here’s the release announcement–now with store links.
Only Footnotes. Because that’s why you read his books.
Academics hate footnotes. Michael W Lucas loves them. What he does with them wouldn’t pass academic muster, but that doesn’t mean the reader should skip them. The footnotes are the best part! Why not read only the footnotes, and skip all that other junk?
After literal minutes of effort, Only Footnotes collects every single footnote from all of Lucas’ books to date.* Recycle those cumbersome treatises stuffed with irrelevant facts! No more flipping through pages and pages of actual technical knowledge looking for the offhand movie reference or half-formed joke. This slender, elegant volume contains everything the man ever passed off as his dubious, malformed “wisdom.”
Smart books have footnotes. Smarter books are only footnotes.
*plus additional annotations from the author. Because sometimes even a footnote needs a footnote.
