Moving Pictures, by Terry Pratchett

Summary: Victor and Ginger and numerous other people find themselves drawn to Holy Wood, the home of the new clicks industry (silent films, Discworld style). But what is really going on? And, more importantly, how does one stop whatever sinister force is involved?

Thoughts: I love the snide commentary on Hollywood. And the counter-point of Gaspode and Laddie is pretty interesting as well. I kinda feel like Gaspode sometimes: wondering why someone else is getting all the attention. And of course this book has the complicated plot line sprinkled with amusing comments and thinly veiled social commentary that I've come to expect from Terry Pratchett.
