The fourth Discworld novel.
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.

A sequence of unalloyed delight

'Pratchett's humour takes logic past the point of absurdity and
round again, but it is his unexpected insights into human morality
that make the Discworld series stand out'
*Times Educational Supplement*
'Cracking dialogue, compelling illogic and unchained whimsy...
Pratchett has a subject and a style that is very much his own'
*The Sunday Times*
'He is screamingly funny. He is wise. He has style'
*Sunday Telegraph*
