Nanny Ogg's Cookbook

A useful and improving Almanack of Information including Nourishing Recipes from Discworld.

Steel yourselves - Nanny Ogg is passing on some of her most interesting recipes and her most refined wisdom. 
 
'Probably the best and certainly the tastiest of the Discworld spin-offs' - The Times 
 
'They say that the way to a man's heart is through his stomach which just goes to show they're as confused about anatomy as they gen'rally are about everything else, unless they're talking about instructions on how to stab him, in which case a better way is up and under the ribcage.' Nanny Ogg 
 
Nanny Ogg, one of Discworld's most famous witches, is passing on some of her huge collection of tasty and above all interesting recipes. But in addition to the delights of the 'Strawberry Wobbler' and 'Nobby's Mum's Distressed Pudding', Mrs Ogg imparts her thoughts on social etiquette, life, death, courtship, children and weddings, all in a refined style that should not offend the most delicate of sensibilities. Well, not much... 
 
Jam-packed with recipes favoured (or not!) by the great and good of the Discworld, full of Nanny Ogg's unique wisdom and way with words, and peppered with apoplectic notes from the editor and the publisher, this is a treasure trove of literary, culinary and comic delights. 
 
A must- purchase for any fan of the legendary Sir Terry Pratchett. 
 
*Most of the recipes have been tried out on people who are still alive.

A Tourist Guide To Lancre

A map of Discworld's most-feared terrain.

A Discworld Witches series mapbook with fold out map. Go beyond the novels to discover more about the fantastically funny and gloriously inventive world of Terry Pratchett’s Discworld series. 
 
Not only an artistic and breathtaking view of Lancre but also an interesting and informative guide to one of the Discworld's more, er, picturesque kingdoms. 
 
Granny Weatherwax, Nanny Ogg and Magrat Garlick live there. Lancre could hardly be somwhere ordinary, could it? 
 
Magic glues the Discworld together and a lot of it ends up in Lancre, principal Kingdom of the Ramtop Mountains. Between Uberwald and Whale Bay, the Octarine Grass Country and the Windersins Ocean lies the most exciting and dangerous terrain in all Discworld. The Ramtops supply Discworld with most of its witches and wizards. The leaves on the trees move even when there is no breeze. Rocks go for a stroll in the evening. Even the land, at times, seems alive. 
 
The mapp may be only two-dimensional, but watch it very carefully and you might just see it jostle about a bit.

Men At Arms - Playtext

The play script adaptation of the classic fantasy novel by Terry Pratchett, the second book in the City Watch series, part of the Discworld novels. 
 
'Funny, wise and mock heroic . . . the best-crafted book I have read all year' Sunday Express 
 
‘Pratchett at his best’ 5-star reader review 
 
'People ought to think for themselves ... The problem is, people only think for themselves if you tell them to.' 
 
Times are a-changing in Ankh-Morpork's Night Watch. 
 
New recruits have been hired to reflect the city's diversity, including Corporal Carrot (technically a dwarf), Lance-constable Cuddy (really a dwarf), Lance-constable Detritus (a troll), and Lance-constable Angua (a woman ... full moons aside). 
 
What's more, Captain Sam Vimes is getting married and retiring from the Watch. For good. Which is a shame, because no one knows the streets of Ankh-Morpork or its criminal underworld better than him. 
 
And someone armed and dangerous has been getting ideas about power and destiny and lost kings, committing a string of seemingly random murders across the city. 
 
The new recruits will need to learn fast ... 
 
Men At Arms is the second book in the City Watch series, but you can read the Discworld novels in any order.

Mort - Playtext

The play script adaptation of the classic fantasy novel by Terry Pratchett, the first book in the Death series, part of the Discworld novels. 
 
'Incredibly funny, compulsively readable' The Times 
 
‘A masterful blend of wit, satire, and philosophy’ 5-star reader reivew 
 
'You cannot interfere with fate. Who are you to judge who should live and who should die?' 
 
Death comes to us all. When he came to Mort, he offered him a job. 
 
Death is the Grim Reaper of the Discworld, a black-robed skeleton with a scythe who ushers souls into the next world. He is also fond of cats and endlessly baffled by humanity. 
 
Soon Death is yearning to experience what humanity really has to offer, but to do that, he'll need to hire some help. 
 
It's an offer Mort can't refuse. As Death's apprentice he'll have free board, use of the company horse - and being dead isn't compulsory. 
 
It's a dream job - until Mort falls in love with Death's daughter, Ysabell, and discovers that your boss can be a killer on your love life . . . 
 
Mort is the first book in the Death series, but you can read the Discworld novels in any order.

'Pratchett's Discworld books have made millions of people happy' Guardian 
 
‘Comedy fantasy at its very best’ 5-star reader review 
 
'Destiny is important, see, but people go wrong when they think it controls them. It's the other way around.' 
 
Three witches gathered on a lonely heath. 
 
A king cruelly murdered, his throne usurped by his ambitious cousin. A child heir and the royal crown, both missing. Witches don't have these kinds of leadership problems themselves - in fact, they don't have leaders. 
 
Granny Weatherwax is the most highly regarded of the leaders they don't have. But even she finds that meddling in royal politics is a lot more complicated than certain playwrights would have you believe. 
 
Particularly when the blood on your hands just won't wash off . . . 
 
Wyrd Sisters is the second book in the Witches series, but you can read the Discworld novels in any order.

They said it couldn't be done. Well, it has been done, proving them wrong once again. 
 
After years of research, cunningly contrived in as many minutes, the Discworld has its map. It takes full account of the historic and much documented expeditions of the Discworld's fêted (or at least fated) explorers: General Sir Roderick Purdeigh, Lars Larsnephew, Llamedos Jones, Lady Alice Venturi, Ponce da Quirm and, of course, Venter Borass. 
 
Now travellers on this circular world can see it all: from Klatch to the Ramtops, from Cori Celesti to the Circle Sea, from Genua to Bhangbhangduc. The great cities of Hunghung, Pseudopolis, Al Khali and, of course, Ankh-Morpork are placed with loving care upon this world which is carried through space by Great A'Tuin.

'THERE'S A SAYING THAT ALL ROADS LEAD TO ANKH-MORPORK. AND IT'S WRONG. ALL ROADS LEAD AWAY FROM ANKH-MORPORK, BUT SOMETIMES PEOPLE JUST WALK ALONG THE WRONG WAY' from Moving Pictures 
 
Ankh-Morpork! City of One Thousand Surprises (according to the famous publication by the Guild of Merchants)! All human life is there! Although, if it walks down the wrong alley, often quite briefly! 
 
The city celebrated in the bestselling Discworld series by Sir Terry Pratchett has been meticulously mapped for the first time. It's all here - from Unseen University to the Shades, from major landmarks like the Patrician's Palace to little-known, er, nooks like Dwarf Bread Museum in Whirligig Alley. 
 
See the famous streets beaten by Sam Vimes and the Ankh-Morpork City Watch, the cobbles along which so many heroes have walked - in some cases quite hurriedly! As leading Ankh-Morpork entrepreneur C.M.O.T. Dibbler would say, a nip at any price - and that's cutting our own throat. Well, close.
