The ninth 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.
'A true original among contemporary writers'
*The Times*
'Cracking dialogue, compelling illogic and unchained
whimsy...Pratchett has a subject and a style that is very much his
own'
*Sunday Times*
'Offers more entertainment per page than anything this side of
Wodehouse'
*Washington Post Book World*
'It's mad, it's glorious, it's (need I say?) hilarious, and it's
putting a terrible strain on Discworld's already fragile fabric of
reality'
*Locus*
