IT'S A RAT-EAT-RAT WORLD . . .

Maurice, a streetwise tomcat, has the perfect money-making scam. Everyone knows the stories about rats and pipers, and Maurice has a stupid-looking kid with a pipe, and his very own plague of rats - strangely educated rats . . .

But in Bad Blintz, the little con suddenly goes down the drain. For someone there is playing a different tune and now the rats must learn a new word.

EVIL.

It's not a game any more. It's a rat-eat-rat world. And that might only be the start . . .

Reviews for The Amazing Maurice and his Educated Rodents: Special Edition

Ethically challenging, beautifully orchestrated, philosophically opposed to the usual plot fixes of fantasy * The Guardian * Excruciatingly funny, ferociously intelligent. * Kirkus * It never ceases to amaze me the amount of... stuff one can find in a Terry Pratchett book * The Book Smugglers * Amazing Maurice has one of the most satisfying and effective endings in the series! * Reading Bug * Humour, humour and more humour, an utterly unpredictable plot, interesting rats - err, characters - and a profound denoument, this is Discworld at its best. * Speculation *
