Carpe Jugulum
Terry Pratchett / Paperback / Expected July 2000
Price: $6.99 Not Yet Published
Carpe Jugulum is the 23rd Discworld novel, and with it this durable series continues its juggernaut procession onward.

The best thing to do for those completely new to Pratchett is to sample him for themselves, and this novel is as good a place to start as any. But fans have a more precise question. They know that Discworld novels come in one of two varieties: the quite ...

Terry Pratchett / Hardcover / Published May 1998
Price: $18.00 - Savings of: $6.00 (25%)

As Jingo begins, an island suddenly rises between Ankh-Morpork and Al-Khali, capital of Klatch. Both cities claim it. Lord Vetinari, the Patrician, has failed to convince the Ruling Council that force is a bad idea, despite reminding them that they have no army, and "I b...
