The seventh Discworld novel.

'Look after the dead', said the priests, 'and the dead will look after you.'

Wise words in all probability, but a tall order when, like Teppic, you have just become the pharaoh of a small and penniless country rather earlier than expected, and your treasury is unlikely to stretch to the building of a monumental pyramid to honour your dead father.

Praise for Pyramids

'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'

Guardian

'As funny as Wodehouse and as witty as Waugh'

Independent

'Imagine a collision between Jonathan Swift at his most scatologically-minded and J.R.R. Tolkien on speed'

Daily Telegraph

'The best kind of parody - funny and smart and still a good story'

Mail on Sunday
