Snuff - On Sale October 11, 2011

At long last, Lady Sybil has lured her husband, Sam Vimes, on a well-deserved holiday away from the crime and grime of Ankh-Morpork. Yet a policeman will find a crime anywhere if he decides to look hard enough, and it’s not long before a body is discovered, and Sam—out of his jurisdiction, out of his element, and out of bacon sandwiches (thanks to his well-meaning wife)—must rely on his instincts, guile, and street smarts to see justice done.

A Note From Terry

Welcome to the Discworld. It started out as a parody of all the fantasy that was around in the big boom of the early '80s, then turned into a satire on just about everything, and even I don't know what it is now. I do know that in that time there's been at least four people promoted as "new Terry Pratchetts" so for all I know I may not even still be me.

And welcome to this web page that those nice people at HarperCollins, at great expense, wear and tear on keyboards, etc., have produced. Wow! There may even be bits that flash on and off! At the very least, you should thank them by buying their books!

On Discworld semaphore communication is still the fastest thing around (if you're not a wizard) and that makes the modems run very slowly.

And now . . . have fun . . .
