A Blink of the Screen : Collected Short Fiction, Paperback / softback Book

A Blink of the Screen : Collected Short Fiction Paperback / softback

Paperback / softback

Description

A must-have collection of shorter fiction from the pen of Sir Terry Pratchett, award-winning and bestselling author of the phenomenally successful Discworld novels.

A brilliant collection of short stories and short form fiction from the pen of one of the world's best-loved authors.

A Blink of the Screen charts the course of Pratchett's long writing career: from his schooldays through to his first writing job on the Bucks Free Press; to the origins of his debut novel, The Carpet People; and on again to the dizzy mastery of the Discworld series. Here are characters both familiar and yet to be discovered; abandoned worlds and others still expanding; adventure, chickens, death, disco and, actually, some quite disturbing ideas about Christmas, all of it shot through with his inimitable brand of humour. With an introduction by Booker Prize-winning author A.S.

Byatt, illustrations by the late Josh Kirby and drawings by the author himself, this is a book to treasure.
