There is a hint of Armageddon in the air. According to the Nice and Accurate Prophecies of Agnes Nutter, Witch (recorded, thankfully, in 1655, before she blew up her entire village and all its inhabitants, who had gathered to watch her burn), the world will end on a Saturday. Next Saturday, in fact. So the Armies of Good and Evil are massing, the four Bikers of the Apocalypse are revving up their mighty hogs and hitting the road, and the world’s last two remaining witchfinders are getting ready to Fight the Good Fight. Atlantis is rising. Frogs are falling. Tempers are flaring, and everything appears to be going to Divine Plan.
Except that a somewhat fussy angel and a fast-living demon are not particularly looking forward to the coming Rapture. They’ve lived amongst Humanity for millennia, and have grown rather fond of the lifestyle. So if Crowley and Aziraphale are going to stop it from happening, they’ve got to find and kill the AntiChrist (which is a shame, really, as he’s a nice kid). There’s just one glitch: someone seems to have misplaced him.
This edition features a new revised text, approved by Neil Gaiman and the Pratchett Estate, which clears up many typos and errors from previous editions. It also features twelve full-colour illustrations from Paul Kidby – Terry Pratchett’s artist of choice – and further pencil drawings.
Turkey and carols, presents and crackers – they all start to feel a bit . . . samey.
How about a huge exploding mince pie, a pet abominable snowman, or a very helpful partridge in a pear tree? What if Father Christmas went to work at a zoo, or caused chaos in a toy store, or was even arrested for burglary!?
Dive into the fantastically funny world of Terry Pratchett, for a festive treat like no other. These ten stories will have you laughing, gasping and crying (with laughter) – you’ll never see Christmas in the same way again.
Pratchett’s Hogswatch classic gets a 25th-anniversary glow-up in this embossed paperback, with new intro by Tony Robinson. A rare, reverent reissue for Death devotees.
Nanny Ogg, one of Discworld’s most famous witches, is passing on some of her huge collection of tasty (and above all interesting!) recipes, since everyone else is doing it. But in addition to the delights of the Strawberry Wobbler and Nobby’s Mum’s Distressed Pudding, Mrs Ogg imparts her thoughts on life, death, etiquette (‘If you go to other people’s funerals they’ll be sure to come to yours’), courtship, children and weddings, all in a refined style that should not offend the most delicate of sensibilities. Well, not much. Most of the recipes have been tried out on people who are still alive! This book is a glorious paperback with a wealth of pencil illustrations.
The Witch’s Vacuum Cleaner is the second collection of Pratchett’s short stories, following on from the hugely successful first volume, Dragons at Crumbling Castle, which became a number 1 bestseller. Beautifully illustrated and brought to life by Mark Beech, these stories feature food fights and pirates, wizards and crooks and are sure to delight Pratchett fans worldwide.
Written when he was just seventeen, The Witch’s Vacuum Cleaner brings together fourteen of Pratchett’s earliest stories. Each of the stories shows the seeds of ideas which Terry went onto develop in his later writing, making this a fascinating collection for his fans.
Official biography using unpublished notes, family insights, and 20+ years of close friendship—purple-edged limited edition honouring the world’s best-loved storyteller.
As the witch of the Chalk, Tiffany Aching performs the distinctly unglamorous work of caring for the needy. But someone – or something – is inciting fear, generating dark thoughts and angry murmurs against witches.
Tiffany must find the source of unrest and defeat the evil at its root. Aided by the tiny-but-tough Wee Free Men, Tiffany faces a dire challenge, for if she falls, the whole Chalk falls with her . . .
The third book in the incredible Tiffany Aching series. Now in a brand-new gift edition, part of the Discworld Hardback Library.
‘In every sense fantastic’ Independent
Saying it with frozen roses and icebergs
Tiffany Aching leaps into a dance – and suddenly the spirit of winter is in love with her. He’s showering her with snowflakes and offering her a crown of ice. Which is creepy, but also just a little bit . . . cool.
Now she’s dancing to his tune. She can’t change the steps.
But unless Tiffany can work out how to deal with the Wintersmith, there will never be another springtime . . .
Deep in the Chalk, something is stirring. The owls and the foxes can sense it, and Tiffany Aching feels it in her boots. An old enemy is gathering strength.
This is a time of endings and beginnings, old friends and new, a blurring of edges and a shifting of power. Now Tiffany stands between the light and the dark, the good and the bad.
As the fairy horde prepares for invasion, Tiffany must summon all the witches to stand with her. To protect the land. Her land.

In this top-secret guide, travellers will receive a first-hand experience of the real city. If you’ve ever wondered where Unseen University students wet their whistles (while managing to avoid their teachers doing the same), or just what the Assassins’ Guild constitutes a proper means of inhumation – there are standards to be upheld, after all – then this is the book for you.
That’s right, have yourselves a peek into the inner workings of city’s societies. Cut the chaff, glimpse behind the curtain, see how the sausage gets made . . . err, you get the idea.
Just don’t let the Thieves’ Guild catch you with this book. They won’t appreciate their methods being flogged behind their back. Flogging’s their job.
Completely revamped and redesigned, this full-colour book contains material from Discworld Diaries across the decades.
The Discworld, as everyone knows, is a flat world balanced on the backs of four elephants which, in turn, stand on the shell of the giant star turtle, the Great A’Tuin, as it slowly swims through space.
It is also a global publishing phenomenon with sales of over 70 million books worldwide (but who’s counting?). The publication of SNUFF brought the Discworld canon to 39 books – not including the various guides, mapps, diaries and other side-projects. That’s a lot of Discworld to keep track of – more than most people can manage with just the one head – but fear not: help is at hand!
If you’re looking for the ultimate authority on probably the most heavily populated – certainly the most hilarious – setting in fantasy literature…
If you need a handy guide to Discworld locales from Ankh-Morpork to Zemphis…
If you want help telling Achmed the Mad from Jack Zweiblumen…
If your life depends on being able to distinguish the Agatean Empire from the Zoons…
…look no further than THE COMPLETE DISCWORLD COMPANION – now fully updated and completely up to SNUFF!
