Synopsis

IT'S THE NIGHT BEFORE HOGSWATCH AND IT'S TOO QUIET.

Where is the big jolly fat man? Why is Death creeping down chimneys and trying to say Ho Ho Ho? The darkest night of the year is getting a lot darker...

Susan the gothic governess has got to sort it out by morning, otherwise there won't be a morning. Ever again...

The 20th Discworld novel is a festive feast of darkness and Death (but with jolly robins and tinsel too) and lots of holly... and other things ending in 'olly'.

As they say: You'd better watch out...

The Terry Pratchett Collection brings readers beautiful hardback editions of the novels of the Discworld to collect and treasure, featuring new cover artwork by Joe McLaren.

Only the mind of Terry Pratchett could have come up with something as ambitious, all-encompassing, magical, bonkers and brilliant as The Discworld. In 41 novels, published over 31 years Pratchett created an entire universe with a rich and diverse cast of characters; from the Machiavellian Patrician Vetinari (handy with a knife, expert crossword completer), magical practitioners of every kind (pompous, absent-minded wizards and stubborn, no-nonsense witches) to Death himself (a curry-loving, cat-friendly philosopher with a horse called Binky). His novels defy genre, proving that fantasy can say more about reality than the most heavy-weight of literary tomes.

One of the Weaker Discworld Tales
A surprisingly poor outing into the Discworld. There are plenty of humorous jokes - mostly at the start - but unlike some of the earlier Discworld stories,... READ MORE
