The twenty-second Discworld novel explores a country something like Australia. Read by Tony Robinson.
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. His novels have been widely adapted for stage and screen, and he was the winner of multiple prizes, including the Carnegie Medal, as well as being awarded a knighthood for services to literature. He died in March 2015.
"'Pratchett's humour takes logic past the point of absurdity and
round again, but it is his unexpected insights into the human
morality that make the Discworld series stand out'"
*Times Literary Supplement*
"' Pratchett is a comic genius'"
*Daily Express*
"The perfect read"
*Evening Standard*
"Delightful...glassful and downright mischevious. The pleasures on
the page are so quirkily seductive. Puts one in mind of one of the
greatest comic writers of them all PG Wodehouse'"
*Sunday Telegraph*
"A minor masterpiece. I laughed so much I fell from my
armchair'"
*Time Out*
