Now Available as Part of the Distinguished Penguin Modern Classics Collection

Join Sam Vimes in this gritty, time-traveling adventure through the streets of Ankh-Morpork. Now available as part of the distinguished Penguin Modern Classics collection, Night Watch showcases Terry Pratchett at his finest, blending sharp social commentary with unforgettable characters and dark humor.

This new paperback edition features the classic tale of Commander Sam Vimes of the Ankh-Morpork City Watch, who finds himself thrown back in time during a pivotal moment in his city’s history. As he navigates the dangerous streets of his own past, Vimes must ensure that history takes its proper course while mentoring his younger self and facing one of his most formidable adversaries.

“In Night Watch, Vimes finds himself – along with a peculiarly unpleasant criminal called Carcer – caught in a time-warp, back in his own early days as a Watchman, trying to change the course of a bloody revolution. He is also concerned to prevent his own callow self as a lance-constable from getting killed, so that he may get back to the present and his child may be born. He has become a dead hero called John Keel, who helped to organise the barricades, but was also a Watch captain at Cable Street. His opponents include the corrupt Unmentionables, who arrest and torture people… [A] master storyteller… He is, of course, writing about us.” — A.S.Byatt

“Compulsively readable. . . . Like Jonathan Swift, Pratchett uses his other world to hold up a distorting mirror to our own, and like Swift he is a satirist of enormous talent. He shares with Aristophanes a sense of the comedian’s mission to teach, and with Sophocles a concern to examine the rule of law versus the rights of the individual.”— Guardian

“Both comic and dark, blending high fantasy, twisted storytelling and all manner of wordplay… a fine place to start reading Pratchett” — New York Times Book Review

Small Gods Slipcase Edition

£350.00

Format: Hardback

First Edition, with illustrated title-spread and 7 coloured illustrations; burgundy cloth, upper board with inset paper label and decorative endpapers. A perfect condition copy in publisher’s board slip-case lettered in gilt. 

In the beginning was the Word. And the Word was: ‘Hey, you!’ This is the Discworld, after all, and religion is a controversial business. Everyone has their own opinion, and indeed their own gods, of every shape and size, and all elbowing for space at the top. In such a competitive environment, shape and size can be pretty crucial to make one’s presence felt. So it’s certainly not helpful to be reduced to appearing in the form of a tortoise, a manifestation far below god-like status in anyone’s book.

In such instances, you need an acolyte, and fast: for the Great God Om, Brutha the novice is the Chosen One – or at least the only One available. He wants peace and justice and brotherly love. He also wants the Inquisition to stop torturing him now, please…

Young Mort despairs of finding a suitable career in his provincial village, until one day he is rather unexpectedly hired by a bony figure in a cowl – Death, it seems, is in need of an apprentice. Introduced to the chilly truth behind the workings of the universe, the inherently curious Mort cannot help but meddle with the laws of time and space.

The Colour of Magic Facsimile Edition

£145.00

Format: Hardback

Page count: 210

Size: 140mm x 220mm x 22mm

The Colour of Magic.  A facsimile of the first edition of the first novel in what became the phenomenally successful and beloved Discworld Series.

Originally published by Hill House in association with Colin Smythe back in 2005. The book is a faithful reproduction of the original 1983 printing and is as close as most collectors will ever come to owning an elusive first edition.

The cover art is by Alan Smith.

For the discerning collector.

In the beginning there was… a turtle. Somewhere on the frontier between thought and reality exists the Discworld, a parallel time and place which might sound and smell very much like our own, but which looks completely different. Particularly as it’s carried though space on the back of a giant turtle (sex unknown). It plays by different rules.

But then, some things are the same everywhere. The Disc’s very existence is about to be threatened by a strange new blight: the world’s first tourist, upon whose survival rests the peace and prosperity of the land. Unfortunately, the person charged with maintaining that survival in the face of robbers, mercenaries and, well, Death, is a spectacularly inept wizard…

The Light Fantastic Facsimile Edition

£145.00

Format: Hardback

Page count: 217

Size: 142mm x 221mm x 22mm

The Light Fantastic is the second Discworld novel, originally published by Colin Smythe Ltd. on June 2nd, 1986. This was Terry Pratchett’s fifth published work, as his non-Discworld books The Carpet People, The Dark Side of the Sun and Strata all proceeded The Colour of Magic. This facsimile edition is identical in every respect to the original, with the exception of a small notice on the copyright page.

For the discerning collector.

‘What shall we do?’ said Twoflower. ‘Panic?’ said Rincewind hopefully. He always held that panic was the best means of survival. As it moves towards a seemingly inevitable collision with a malevolent red star, the Discworld could do with a hero. What it doesn’t need is a singularly inept and cowardly wizard, still recovering from the trauma of falling off the edge of the world, or a well-meaning tourist and his luggage which has a mind (and legs) of its own. Which is a shame because that’s all there is…

The Long Mars – Uncorrected Proof

£40.00 £20

Format: Paperback

A rare opportunity to own a The Long Mars uncorrected book proof.

‘2040-2045: In the years after the cataclysmic Yellowstone eruption there is massive economic dislocation as populations flee Datum Earth to myriad Long Earth worlds. Sally, Joshua, and Lobsang are all involved in this perilous work when, out of the blue, Sally is contacted by her long-vanished father and inventor of the original Stepper device, Willis Linsay. He tells her he is planning a fantastic voyage across the Long Mars and wants her to accompany him. But Sally soon learns that Willis has ulterior motives …

Meanwhile U. S. Navy Commander Maggie Kauffman has embarked on an incredible journey of her own, leading an expedition to the outer limits of the far Long Earth.

For Joshua, the crisis he faces is much closer to home. He becomes embroiled in the plight of the Next: the super-bright post-humans who are beginning to emerge from their ‘long childhood’ in the community called Happy Landings, located deep in the Long Earth. Ignorance and fear are causing ‘normal’ human society to turn against the Next – and a dramatic showdown seems inevitable . . .’

Last One 

If this title isn’t one you’re looking for, we do have a limited number of books from the Long Earth series in stock. A mixture of proofs, slipcases & hardbacks.
