Terry Pratchett's Discworld Collection
In the UK, only J.K. Rowling (Harry Potter) outsells fantasy writer Terry Pratchett. Borrowing from Shakespeare, Tolkien, folklore, and fairy tales, he has created a place called Discworld, a flat planet balanced on the backs of four elephants standing on a giant turtle. Two of Pratchett’s tales come alive in animated adaptations produced for British television. Includes Wyrd Sisters and Soul Music. “Wild and wonderful”—Asimov’s Science Fiction.
