Product Information

The new Discworld novel from the master sees Sam Vimes investigating a countryhouse murder, and is Terry Pratchett's fiftieth book. Eighth book of the original and best CITY WATCH series, now reinterpreted in BBC's The Watch 'Snuff is entertaining, with all Pratchett's genius on display' Sunday Express The Discworld is very much like our own - if our own were to consist of a flat planet balanced on the back of four elephants which stand on the back of a giant turtle, that is . . . 'The jurisdiction of a good man extends to the end of the world.' It is a truth universally acknowledged that a policeman taking a holiday would barely have had time to open his suitcase before he finds his first corpse. Commander Sam Vimes of the Ankh-Morpork City Watch is on holiday in the pleasant and innocent countryside, but not for him a mere body in the wardrobe. There are many, many bodies - and an ancient crime more terrible than murder. He is out of his jurisdiction, out of his depth, out of bacon sandwiches; and out of his mind. But never out of guile. Where there is a crime there must be a punishment. They say that in the end all sins are forgiven. Vimes is about to uncover the exception. _______________ Winner of the Bollinger Everyman Wodehouse Prize for Comic Fiction

Great Discworld novel
Terry Pratchett was a 5 star author. This is particularly funny, sad and compelling.

Pratchett humour at its best.
bought it for my collection, to enjoy reading was good and not heavy going, as with every Terry Pratchett book there are not a lot of bad points if you are a fan, you could let your children read it, if you need anythingelse buy yourself a copy and enjoy.
