Terry 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.

Pratchett has a subject and a style that is very much his own
*The Sunday Times*
Much of Pratchett's appeal lies in his humanism, both in a
sentimental regard for his characters' good fortune, and in that
his writing is generous-spirited and inclusive
