What They're Saying
Critics Review
‘Funny, delightfully inventive, and refuses to lie down in its genre’ * Observer *
‘Imagine a collision between Jonathan Swift at his most scatalogically-minded and J.R.R Tolkein on speed… This total mess of- I suppose- a novel, is the joyous outcome’ * Daily Telegraph *
‘Cracking dialogue, compelling illogic and unchained whimsy… Pratchett has a subject and a style that is very much his own’ * The Sunday Times *
‘Pratchett is as funny as Wodehouse and as witty as Waugh’ * Independent *
‘Like Dickens, much of Pratchett’s appeal lies in his humanism, both in a sentimental regard for his characters’ good fortune, and in that his writing is generous-spirited and inclusive’ * Guardian *
‘This spinner of crazy science-fiction tales is a very sophisticated jester’ * The Times *
