DEVILISHLY GOOD REVIEWS FOR TERRY PRATCHETT …
“A master of laugh-out-loud fiction.”
—Chicago Tribune
“Terry Pratchett seems constitutionally unable to write a page without at least a twitch of the grin muscles. … [But] the notions Pratchett plays with are nae so narrow or nae so silly as your ordinary British farce.”
—San Diego Union-Tribune
“Pratchett is well able to combine the hilarious with the topical, acerbic, and incisive.”
—Toronto Star
“A top-notch satirist.”
—Denver Post
“Terry Pratchett may still be pegged as a comic novelist, but … he’s a lot more. In his range of invented characters, his adroit storytelling, and his clear-eyed acceptance of humankind’s foibles, he reminds me of no one in English literature as much as Geoffrey Chaucer. No kidding.”
—Washington Post Book World
