Terry Pratchett - UK Website

Terry Pratchett is one of the most popular authors writing in the UK today.  He is the acclaimed creator of the Discworld series, the first title in which, The Colour of Magic, was published in 1983, and the latest, no. 37, is Unseen Academicals.

The Discworld series is a continuous history of a world not totally unlike our own, except that it is a flat disc carried on the backs of four elephants astride a giant turtle floating through space, and that it is peopled by, among others, wizards, dwarves, soldiers, thieves, beggars, vampires and witches.  Within the history of Discworld, there are many individual stories which can be enjoyed in any order.  But reading them in the sequence in which they were written can increase your enjoyment through the accumulation of all the fine detail that contributes to the teeming imaginative complexity of this brilliantly conceived world.
