Gerrards Cross: Colin Smythe, 1983.
First edition of the first Discworld novel in the author’s acclaimed series, in the rare first issue dust jacket with the publisher’s corrected blurb pasted on the front flap. Octavo, original cloth. Near fine in a near fine dust jacket. The first edition is reported to have comprised 500 copies, but 400 of these were seemingly issued to libraries within the United Kingdom. Rare.
A writer who has been compared to Mark Twain, Kurt Vonnegut, and Douglas Adams, Sir Terry Pratchett has created a complex, yet zany world filled with a host of unforgettable characters who navigate around a profound fantasy universe, complete with its own set of cultures and rules.
