What the critics say

Like reading Tolkien but with gags - and good gags too
- Guardian

The great Terry Pratchett, whose wit is metaphysical, who creates an energetic and lively secondary world, who has a multifarious genius for strong parody ... who deals with death with startling originality. Who writes amazing sentences
- New York Times

His spectacular inventiveness makes the Discworld series one of the perennial joys of modern fiction
- Mail on Sunday

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...It's enjoyable as crime fiction, but the real attraction is the laughter waiting to be uncovered on each page
- Observer

An explosion of imaginative lunacy
- Daily Express
