Description: "An unmitigated delight and very, very funny." - London Times "Pratchett's witty reach is even longer than usual here, from Pulp Fiction to His Girl Friday. Readers who've never visited Discworld before may find themselves laughing out loud, even as they cheer on the good guys, while longtime fans are sure to call this Pratchett's best one yet." - Publishers Weekly (starred review) "Pratchett's The Truth will set you free--and laughing. . . . If 'Dr. Who' had been conceived, written and performed by Monty Python's Flying Circus, the result might be something like 'Discworld.' . . . . [The Truth] sets its sights on an enduring institution, the news media, and skewers it. . . . Pratchett is a master at wordplay." - CNN "The Discworld books are more like many-charactered, many-chaptered Dickens. . . . If you like Shakespeare, you'll love Wyrd Sisters. If you like comparative mythology you'll worship Pyramids. If you're into gothic romanticism you'll sink your teeth into Carpe Jugulum. I'm a hack, so I value The Truth." - The Times (London) "A blistering satire on the press." - The Guardian "With his humor and endless invention, Terry Pratchett has rightly dominated the fantasy genre. The Truth shows that he is still the master. . . . Pratchett's imagination shows no signs of flagging. On the contrary, The Truth is an unmitigated delight and very, very funny." - London Times
