		In "Johnny and the dead", Johnny finds he can talk to the dead and has to help them move before their cemetary is bulldozed.
		The only negative thing I have to say is that they are all about a completely different subject, and somehow you expect a trilogy to be one big story.

		His friends include a hacker whose only joy in life is to crack the copy protection on the latest game releases.
		Well, the writing style is instantly familiar to Pratchett fans, but the world portrayed, despite being set in the real world, is rather over-simplified and not at all like the richly textured Discworld in terms of realism.
		Perhaps pre-teens would not notice this, but I can only give my own opinion on this.

		She is Captain of the ScreeWee fleet, and she has asked Johnny for safe conduct back to ScreeWee space, because "[w]hen we die, we die.
		Forever." Juxtaposed against Johnny's inexplicably real involvement in a computer game—when he dreams, he enters game space and can wake up only when he "dies"—are the televised events of the first war in Iraq, when the nightly news showed missile's-eye views of the remote bombing of Baghdad.
		This offering doesn't pretend to subtlety at all, but the premise is so very intriguing, and so well-presented (in characteristically wry Pratchett fashion), that Johnny's cry for the essential humanity of all to be recognized, whether English, Iraqi or ScreeWee, loses none of its poignancy—or timeliness.

		In this second book, Johnny Maxwell is a fairly ordinary 12 year-old boy, except for the fact that he's somehow found a way to communicate with the dead people at his town's cemetery.
		Unfortunately for Johnny's new group of dead friends, a greedy and heartless corporation (is there any other kind?), has bought the cemetery from the city and plans to bulldoze it over and turn it into office buildings.
		Johnny and the Dead is an amusing read that also has a good message about the importance of balancing progress and preserving the past.

	The Annotated Pratchett File v9.0 - Only You Can Save Mankind
		In order to fully appreciate this novel it may not be necessary, but I think it will greatly add to your enjoyment and understanding, if you have seen at least one of the Alien movies, and have played at least one computer shoot-em-up arcade game.
		As a movie this was decidedly a so-so experience (you can take my word for it, I have seen it), but it deserves credit for one major achievement: after the box-office disaster of Tron it was the first Hollywood film to make extensive use of computer-generated animation.
		And since The Last Starfighter was not a commercial failure, it effectively opened the road again for further use of computer graphics in movies.
