Author Biography 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.

Review The work of a prolific humorist at his best * Observer *Like most true originals, Pratchett defies categorisation...Deliciously and amiably dotty...Driven by Swiftian logic and equally intellectually inventive * The Times *Fantastical, inventive and finally serious...Its enjoyable as crime fiction, but the real attraction is the laughter waiting to be uncovered on each page * Observer * Promotional The nineteenth Discworld novel.
