The eighth Discworld novel.
Terry Pratchett is one of the most popular authors writing today. He lives behind a keyboard in Wiltshire and says he 'doesn't want to get a life, because it feels as though he's trying to lead three already'. He was appointed OBE in 1998. He is the author of the phenomenally successful Discworld series and his trilogy for young readers, The Bromeliad, is scheduled to be adapted into a spectacular animated movie. His first Discworld novel for children, THE AMAZING MAURICE AND HIS EDUCATED RODENTS, was awarded the 2001 Carnegie Medal.
'This is one of Pratchett's best books. Hilarious and highly
recommended'

'Pratchett is at the peak of his powers; it's hard to think of any
humorist writing in Britain today who can match him...A masterful
ear for dialogue, a keen eye for the ridiculous and a real feel for
language'
