Pratchett, Terry

Sir Terry Pratchett is a publishing phenomenon. Among his many prizes and citations are the World Fantasy Life Achievement Award, the Carnegie Medal, the BSFA Award, eight honorary doctorates and, of course, a knighthood. In 2012, he won a BAFTA for his documentary on the subject of assisted suicide, 'Terry Pratchett: Choosing to Die'. He is the author of fifty bestselling books but is best known for the globally renowned Discworld series.

The first Discworld novel, The Colour of Magic, was published in 1983, and the series is still going strong almost three decades later. Four Discworld novels - Hogfather, Going Postal, The Colour of Magic and The Light Fantastic - have been adapted for television, with more to follow. His books have sold approximately 85 million copies worldwide (but who's counting?), and been translated into forty languages.

In 2007, Terry Pratchett was diagnosed with early onset Alzheimer's Disease. He died in 2015.

Rincewind is back in another hilarious Discworld adventure, featuring Sir Terry Pratchett's classic wit and satirical edge

'One of our greatest fantasists, and beyond a doubt the funniest' George R.R. Martin

There was an eighth son of an eighth son. He was, quite naturally, a wizard. And there it should have ended.

However (for reasons we'd better not go into), he had seven sons. And then he had an eighth son... a wizard squared... a source of magic... a Sourcerer.

Sourcery sees the return of Rincewind and the Luggage as the Discworld faces its greatest - and funniest - challenge yet.

Readers love Sourcery:

'I was so pleased to be back with Rincewind, and of course, The Luggage . . . I enjoyed every moment' Goodreads reviewer,

'Takes on sword and sorcery fantasies, taking satirical swipes at pretty much all the big ones- Lord of the Rings, Narnia, Fantasia, The Tempest, Conan the Barbarian, 1001 Nights, Fafhrd and Grey Mouser . . . One of my favourite Discworld novels so far' Goodreads reviewer,

'A pretty darn good book . . . in my opinion has a bit more depth and detail than the first few books, and feels like the Discworld is becoming much more of a "World"' Goodreads reviewer,

'It had magic, it had heroes (and heroines), it had the Librarian, it had Rincewind, it had The Luggage and it had DEATH. What more do you need for a great Discworld novel' Goodreads reviewer,

'I adore the Luggage and Rincewind is a great character . . . I simply love Terry's writing and how quick he is with a joke. I love the humour and just how absurd it all is' Goodreads reviewer,

'Wonderful imagination and terrific humour as usual from this excellent fantasy author' Goodreads reviewer,

A beautiful gift-edition hardback of the classic Discworld novel.
