Summary

The second book in Terry Pratchett’s fantastically funny trilogy, The Bromeliad.

This is the story of Jekub, the Dragon in the Hill with great big teeth and a great loud voice. (Well, that’s according to the nomes, but they are only four inches tall.)

Critics Review

Slapstick romp laced with some sharp, satirical barbs

Slapstick romp laced with some sharp, satirical barbs * Publishers Weekly *A well-written comic fantasy that blends an off-beat but believable plot with strong but quirky characters, lots of entertaining adventures and a liberal dose of humour … Highly recommended * The School Librarian *

Terry Pratchett

Terry Pratchett was the acclaimed creator of the global bestselling Discworld series, the first of which, The Colour of Magic, was published in 1983. In all, he was the author of over fifty bestselling books which have sold over 100 million copies worldwide.

He was awarded a knighthood for services to literature in 2009, although he always wryly maintained that his greatest service to literature was to avoid writing any.
