Carpe Jugulum by Terry Pratchett  – Letterbox Edition

Lancre’s peaceful (well, as peaceful as it gets) existence is under threat from a new breed of vampires. These aren’t your garlic-fearing, sunlight-shy traditionalists, oh no. The Magpyrs are sophisticated, progressive, and utterly ruthless. They’ve read all the latest books on vampire psychology, ditched the old superstitions, and arrived with designer capes and a plan to take over the kingdom. Their motto? Carpe Jugulum – seize the throat!

Enter the Lancre witches: Esme Weatherwax, the no-nonsense headologist who can out-think anyone (even undead nobility); Nanny Ogg, with her encyclopedic knowledge of folk remedies and family recipes; Magrat Garlick, armed with herbs, spells and a surprisingly useful rolling pin; and Mightily Oats, a nervous priest whose faith is about to be tested in the most literal way.

Terry Pratchett’s twenty-third Discworld novel is a masterful blend of sharp satire, laugh-out-loud humour, and deep insight into belief, religion, and what it really means to be monstrous. From vampire rehab to the power of narrative itself, Carpe Jugulum skewers everything from gothic tropes to modern self-help culture with gleeful precision.

This Letterbox Edition revives the classic late-1990s/early-2000s UK paperback style that fans adore. Whether you’re a longtime collector hunting for that nostalgic format or a new reader discovering Discworld for the first time, this edition delivers the full Pratchett experience in a format that’s as timeless as Granny’s hat.
