The concept of a flat world carried on the backs of four giant elephants who themselves are carried by a humongous Turtle named A"Ttuim floating through the multiverse is a strange one. Add to this the many weird and wonderful inhabitants from witches and trolls to dwarves and wizards that populate this world and you get perhaps one of the most successful series in modern literature, Terry Pratchett's Discworld. Like millions of others I am very much a fan of Pratchett's brand of silly intelligent humour with its wry observations on all aspects of modern life, the parody, word play and the downright awful puns he writes. Who can resist his ... Read the complete review

The Wit and Wisdom of Discworld is a collection of quotes and funny little moments from all of Terry Pratchett's highly praised Discworld books. From the very first one The Colour of Magic, all the way up until Making Money (this book was published in 2007, so no quotes from the new one). The book contains all the best one-liners, gags, jokes, and all the sharp wit Pratchett put in all his books. While it's certainly a good book, I only rate it three stars because it seems like a bit of a cheap cash-in. I mean, yes, it's a pretty cool book for the die-hard fans but sometimes, out of context, the quotes just aren't as good. Granted Pratchett's writing is ... Read the complete review

The wit and wisdom of the Discworld by Terry Pratchett is a great reference book. It is split into chapters and each chapter is based on a Discworld novel. There are then quotes from the novel covered in the chapter. The quotes are numerous and will bring back wonderful memories. Whilst not a story book. It contains all the funniest parts of each book in the series. The book is meant not to be read from front to back, although it could be, but to be opened at a random page, a few quotes to be read, and for said quotes to inspire you to read whichever novel the quotes are from. I used it many time is university when i could not decide which book ... Read the complete review
