'This spinner of crazy science-fiction tales is a very sophisticated jester'

The Times

'Cracking dialogue, compelling illogic and unchained whimsy... Pratchett has a subject and a style that is very much his own'

The Sunday Times

'Pratchett is as funny as Wodehouse and as witty as Waugh'

Independent

'Imagine a collision between Jonathan Swift at his most scatalogically-minded and J.R.R Tolkein on speed... This total mess of- I suppose- a novel, is the joyous outcome'

Daily Telegraph

'Funny, delightfully inventive, and refuses to lie down in its genre'

Observer

'Like Dickens, much of Pratchett's appeal lies in his humanism, both in a sentimental regard for his characters' good fortune, and in that his writing is generous-spirited and inclusive'
