    This is part of a set of gift-sized editions of Terry Pratchett's Discworld novels. Discworld is a flat planet, supported on the backs of four elephants, who in turn stand on the back of the great turtle A'Tuin as it swims majestically through space. From the Back Cover It is fantasy? No - it's a different and more eccentric reality, where the world is flat and moves through space on the back of a giant turtle, Death stalks glumly about his duties, and dragons only exist if you believe in them. And your luggage follows you around on hundreds of little legs... Follow Twoflower the naïve tourist and his inept guide Rincewind in their hilarious search for thrills, adventure and opportunities to not get killed. Follow them all the way to the Edge - and beyond... THE FIRST NOVEL IN THE NOW LEGENDARY DISCWORLD SERIES Tony Robinson, successful writer, actor and documentary-maker. Star of radio, TV and theatre.
