Terry Pratchett (1948-2015) is the acclaimed creator of the globally revered Discworld series. In all, he authored more than fifty bestselling books, which have sold more than one hundred million copies worldwide. His novels have been widely adapted for stage and screen, and he was the winner of multiple prizes, including the Carnegie Medal. He was awarded a knighthood by Queen Elizabeth II for his services to literature in 2009, although he always wryly maintained that his greatest service to literature was to avoid writing any.
""Fans will also find plenty of well-loved elements: exuberant wordplay, vaudevillian humor, the rambunctious blue-skinned Nac Mac Feegle, and-beneath it all-a susurrus of shivery archetype and myth. Pratchett's final work is a tour de force of compassion, great wit, and gleeful storytelling."" -- Publishers Weekly (starred review) ""There is something deeply suitable about the significant focus here on legacy and what is left behind. Savor this one; it's literally the last authorized book coming."" -- Bulletin of the Center for Children's Books (starred review) ""Terry was one of our greatest fantasists, and beyond a doubt the funniest."" -- George R. R. Martin ""A Terry Pratchett book is a small miracle."" -- Neil Gaiman ""Discworld is one of the very most fabulous creations in all of literature."" -- Patrick Ness ""No writer in my lifetime has given me as much pleasure and happiness."" -- A. S. Byatt ""A writer of monumental talent."" -- Rick Riordan ""Beloved fantasy writer Pratchett died this spring, and his dedicated and immense fan base will want his final novel. His storytelling is pure magic, and fans will grieve anew that this is the last of it. Stock up."" -- Booklist ""Elegiac and comforting, funny and serious."" -- Horn Book Magazine
