Once, in a gods-forsaken hellhole called Koom Valley, trolls and dwarfs met in bloody combat. Centuries later, each species still views the other with simmering animosity. Lately, the influential dwarf, Grag Hamcrusher, has been fomenting unrest among Ankh-Morpork`s more diminutive citizens-a volatile situation made far worse when the pint-size provocateur is discovered bashed to with a troll club lying conveniently nearby. Commander Sam Vimes of the City Watch is aware of the impor tanceofsolvingthe Hamcrusher homicide without delay.

The hero of "The Truth" is William de Worde, disenfranchised member of the wealthy - and arrogant - nobility. William earns a meager living selling highly specialized "news letters" to selected subscribers. With the belated advent of moveable type, business picks up rapidly, and William finds himself manning the helm of a revolutionary publication: "The Ankh-Morpork Times", whose erroneously typeset motto is "The Truth Shall Make You Fret". It shall, indeed.

Terry Pratchett`s profoundly irreverent novels are consistent number one bestseller in England, where they have catapulted him into the highest echelons of parody next to Mark Twain, Kurt Vonnegut, Douglas Adams, and Carl Hiaasen. In this Discworld installment, Death comes to Mort with an offer he can`t refuse - especially since being, well, dead isn`t Death`s apprentice, he`ll have free board and lodging, use of the company horse, and he won`t need time off for family funerals. The position is everything Mort thought he`d ever wanted, until he discovers that this perfect job can be a killer on his love life.

On Discworld, a bizarre planet carried through space on the backs of four elephants perched on a gigantic turtle, retirement is looking good to Wizard Rincewind. But when a nearly illegible and equally incomprehensible message from a lost (until now) continent arrives, his glorious leaders pack him off on an ill-considered diplomatic mission. Just what he is supposed to accomplish, no one can say. As the mystery grows ever more unfathomable, Rincewind is faced with yet another pressing question: What is that magical butterfly doing here, anyway? Формат: 10,5 см x 17 см

Humorous fantasy author Terry Pratchett returns to his beloved and bestselling Discworld, a flat land of untamed imagination where all manner of oddities and absurdities take place.

So hop on board for another delightful and hilarious jaunt through Discworld with Terry Pratchett.
