"Terry Pratchett is fast, funny and going places. Try him!" -- Piers Anthony"Pratchett is the funniest parodist working in the field today, period." -- "The New York Review of Science Fiction""There is no end to the wacky wonders . . . no fantasies as consistently, inventively mad . . . wild and wonderful!" -- "Isaac Asimov's Science Fiction Magazine""Delightful . . . logically illogical as only Terry Pratchett canwrite." -- Anne McCaffrey"Terry Pratchett does for fantasy what Douglas Adams did forscience fiction." -- "Today""If Pratchett had put quill to parchment before Douglas Adams, Ford Prefect would still be with his thumb in the air." -- "Time Out""Unadulterated fun . . . witty, frequently hilarious . . .Pratchett parodies everything in sight."-- "San Francisco Chronicle""Pratchett demonstrates just how great the distance is betweenone- or two-joke writers and the comic masters whose workwill still be read into the next century. So, no more talk abouthis 'getting better with each book.' He reached the top of hisform some time ago, and should remain there for years, toeveryone's benefit." -- "Locus""Terry Pratchett is simply the best humorous writer of the 20th century. Wodehouse, Waugh, Sharpe, etc. all have their merits --sometimes considerable--but Pratchett really is a cut above the rest."-- "Oxford Times"
