Thief Of Time (discworld Novel)

ISBN: 9780552148405
Author: Terry Pratchett
Description:
Time is a resource. Everyone knows it has to be managed. And on Discworld that is the job of the Monks of History, who store it and pump it from the places where it's wasted (like underwater - how much time does a codfish need?) to places like cities where there's never enough time. But the construction of the world's first truly accurate clock starts a race against, well, time for Lu Tze and his apprentice Lobsang Ludd. Because it will stop time. And that will only be the start of everyone's problems. Thief of Time comes complete with a full supporting cast of heroes and villains, yetis, martial artists and Ronnie, the fifth Horseman of the Apocalypse (who left before they became famous). FROM THE PUBLISHER REVIEWS: 'In a better world he would be acclaimed as a great writer rather than a merely successful one... this is the best Pratchett I have ever read... ought to be a strong contender for the Booker prize' CHARLES SPENCER, Telegraph; 'Reads with all the polished fluency and sure-footed pacing that have become Pratchett's hallmarks over the years' PETER INGHAM, Times on Saturday; 'Terry Pratchett is one of the great inventors of secondary - or imaginative or alternative - worlds. He is not derivative, he is too strong... he has the real energy of the primary storyteller' A. S. BYATT, The Times
