A fascinating guide to the international bestselling
Discworld series and the award-winning The Wee Free
Men—soon to be a major motion picture
Before
J. K. Rowling became the best-selling author in Britain, Terry
Pratchett wore that hat. With over 45 million books sold,
Pratchett is an international phenomenon. His brainchild is the
Discworld series—novels he began as parodies of other works
like Macbeth, Faust, and The Arabian Nights.
The Wee Free Men, one of Pratchett's most popular
novels, will be made into a movie by Spider-Man
director Sam Raimi. It's the story of 9-year-old
wannabe
witch Tiffany Aching, who unites with the Nac Mac Feegle
(6-inch-tall
blue men who like to fight and love to drink) to free
her brother
from an evil fairy queen.
A fun, interactive
guide that will explore the land of Discword, Secrets of
The Wee Free Men and Discworld is
filled with sidebars, mythology trivia, and includes a bio
of the
fascinating author Terry Pratchett, and an
in-depth analysis
of his work. This unofficial guide is a great resource
for readers
of The Wee Free Men and the other books of the
Discworld series.
