## Descripción

A special hardback gift edition of classic fantasy novel by Terry Pratchett, a standalone Discworld novel. 'An unmitigated delight . . . very, very funny' The Times ‘A political thriller set in a fantasy world and a fantasy novel involving a political thriller…. A classic from a master storyteller ’ 5-star reader review 'A lie can run round the world before the truth can get its boots on.' William de Worde has somehow found himself editor of Ankh-Morpork's first newspaper. Well, with a name like that . . . Launched into the world of investigative journalism, alongside reporter Sacharissa Cripslock, William soon learns that the news is a risky business. For a start, his colleagues include a band of axe-wielding dwarfs and a recovering vampire with a life-threatening passion for flash photography. It's a big news week: the most powerful man in the city has been arrested, leaving Ankh-Morpork without a leader. And a dangerous criminal organisation will do anything to control the story . . . The Discworld novels can be read in any order, but The Truth is a standalone. Praise for the Discworld series: '[Pratchett’s] spectacular inventiveness makes the Discworld series one of the perennial joys of modern fiction' Mail on Sunday ‘Pratchett is a master storyteller ’ Guardian 'One of our greatest fantasists, and beyond a doubt the funniest' George R. R. Martin 'One of those rare writers who appeals to everyone ’ Daily Express ‘One of the most consistently funny writers around’ Ben Aaronovitch ‘ Masterful and brilliant ’ Fantasy & Science Fiction ‘Pratchett uses his other world to hold up a distorting mirror to our own… he is a satirist of enormous talent ... incredibly funny ... compulsively readable' The Times ‘The best humorous English author since P. G. Wodehouse' The Sunday Telegraph ‘Nothing short of magical ’ Chicago Tribune 'Consistently funny , consistently clever and consistently surprising in its twists and turns' SFX ‘[Discworld is] compulsively readable, fantastically inventive , surprisingly serious exploration in story form of just about any aspect of our world… There's never been anything quite like it ’ Evening Standard
