About this product
Product Information
Greetings, adventurer We lay before you this most comprehensive gazetteer encompassing all the streets of Ankh-Morpork, as well as information on its principal businesses, hotels, taverns, inns, and places of entertainment and refreshment, enhanced by the all-new and compleat map of our great city state. Our city has grown well beyond its ancient walls, but the remit of this commission from the honourable Guild of Merchants was to 'map the city', the pulsing organ of commerce and culture, the heart as opposed to the body, and this we have done. In spades. We ask that when you pore over this glorious work you spare some thought for the humble cartographers and surveyors who made journeys into the darker corners of our metropolis - no less dangerous than the wilds of Skund or Bhangbhangduc. To some the only memorial is the map you now possess. Others, in their quest for knowledge, paid the highest price that scholarship demands, which is to say, a day off in lieu. And so we dedicate this map and these accompanying words to the officers, councilors and members of the Merchants' Guild and to all who will find in its pages paths yet to tread and places yet to explore within the magnificentbwonder that is the city of Ankh-Morpork.Product Identifiers

A coffee table compendium about all the details about Disk World, particularly Ankh-Morpork, the capital and major city.
This compendium is a great companion piece to the Disk World books by Terry Pratchett. It provides all the unique and hilarious "insider" knowledge needed to appreciate the characters, places, and events in the Disk World series. My favorite was how NOT to use the holy water font at one of the temples that includes not using soap and washing one's hands in it.Verified purchase: YesCondition: New

Wonderful and hilarious detail account of Ankh-Morpork.
Terry Pratchett gives hilarious detailed account of the main location of his disc world series novels. The colorful poster that came with the book certainly helped me in keeping track of the shops and locations. Since I have read over half of the 41 disc world novels I could relate to the characters and locations in the city of Ankh-Morpork.Verified purchase: YesCondition: New
