After growing from humble beginnings as a Sword Sorcery parody to more than 30 volumes of wit, wisdom, and whimsy, the Discworld series has become a phenomenon unlike any other. Now, in "The Turtle Moves!," Lawrence Watt-Evans presents a story-by-story history of DiscworldOCOs evolution as well as essays on PratchettOCOs place in literary canon, the nature of the Disc itself, and the causes and results of the Discworld phenomenon, all refreshingly free of literary jargon littered with informative footnotes.
Part breezy reference guide, part droll commentary, "The Turtle Moves!" will enlighten and entertain every Pratchett reader, from the casual browser to the most devout of DiscworldOCOs fans.
