Description
A beautiful hardback edition of the classic Discworld novel
'Anything you do in the past changes the future. The tiniest little actions have huge consequences. You might tread on an ant now and it might entirely prevent someone from being born in the future.'
There's nothing like the issue of evolution to get under the skin of academics. Even if their field of expertise is magic rather than biology. With the best and most interfering minds of Unseen University somehow left in charge at a critical evolutionary turning point, the Discworld's last continent needs a saviour...
Who is this hero striding across the red desert? Sheep shearer, beer drinker, bush ranger, and someone who'll even eat a Meat Pie Floater when he's sober.
In fact, it's Rincewind, a wizard so inept he can't even spell wizard. He's the only hero left.
Still...no worries, eh?
The twenty-second Discworld novel, now available in hardback as part of the Discworld Collector's Library.

Delightful...gleeful and downright mischievous-Sunday Telegraph
Pratchett's writing is a constant delight. No one mixes the fantastical and the mundane to better comic effect or offers sharper insights into the absurdities of human endeavour-Daily Mail

Great update
I love discworld and I am slowly replacing the badgered old paperbacks. These are a lovely update, and at a great price.
