Description
Book SynopsisTerry Pratchett was the acclaimed creator of the global bestselling Discworld series, the first of which, The Colour of Magic, was published in 1983. In all, he was the author of over fifty bestselling books which have sold over 100 million copies worldwide. His novels have been widely adapted for stage and screen, and he was the winner of multiple prizes, including the Carnegie Medal. He was awarded a knighthood for services to literature in 2009, although he always wryly maintained that his greatest service to literature was to avoid writing any.

Trade ReviewEthically challenging, beautifully orchestrated, philosophically opposed to the usual plot fixes of fantasy * Guardian *
Simply gripping story-telling * The Times *
Powerful, passionate, mordantly funny and, at one point, unbearably sad * Daily Telegraph *
An astonishing novel...I marvelled at the ferociousness of the humour, and the willingness to go into dark places * Financial Times *
Great yarn written in fairly simple text * Liverpool Echo *
