The first Discworld novel, revamped for a new generation of
readers.
Somewhere on the frontier between thought and reality exists the
Discworld, a parallel time and place which might sound and smell
very much like our own, but which looks completely different. It
plays by different rules. Certainly it refuses to succumb to the
quaint notion that universes are ruled by pure logic and the
harmony of numbers.
But just because the Disc is different doesn't mean that some
things don't stay the same. Its very existence is about to be
threatened by a strange new blight: the arrival of the first
tourist, upon whose survival rests the peace and prosperity of the
land. But if the person charged with maintaining that survival in
the face of robbers, mercenaries and, well, Death is a
spectacularly inept wizard, a little logic might turn out to be a
very good idea.
" "
The Colour of Magic""is the first novel in Terry Pratchett's
acclaimed Discworld series, of which some 20 million copies have
been sold. This special hardcover edition is reissued to
commemorate the twenty-first anniversary of its first publication
by Colin Smythe Limited in 1983. Since then the Discworld has
spawned a further thirty-one titles and become one of the most
popular and celebrated sequences in English literature.
