'Funny, wise and mock heroic...The funniest and best crafted book I have read all year'
"Sunday Express

"
'Like Jonathan Swift, Pratchett uses his other world to hold up a distorting mirror to our own, and like Swift he is a satirist of enormous talent ... incredibly funny ... compulsively readable'
"The Times
-
"
'His spectacular inventiveness makes the Discworld series one of the perennial joys of modern fiction'
"Mail on Sunday
-
"
'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'
"A.S. Byatt, New York Times

"'Persistently amusing, good-hearted and shrewd'"
