Hogfather: Discworld

Autor Terry Pratchett
en Limba Engleză Hardback – dec 2017

The ultimate Christmas read. Terry Pratchett's Hogswatch masterpiece that will leave you laughing out loud and help you understand what makes us uniquely human. 'He is screamingly funny. He is wise. He has style' Daily Telegraph IT'S THE NIGHT BEFORE HOGSWATCH AND IT'S TOO QUIET. Where is the big jolly fat man? Why is Death creeping down chimneys and trying to say Ho Ho Ho? The darkest night of the year is getting a lot darker... Susan the gothic governess has got to sort it out by morning, otherwise there won't be a morning. Ever again... The 20th Discworld novel is a festive feast of darkness and Death (but with jolly robins and tinsel too). As they say: You'd better watch out...

This one will definitely remain my beloved annual holiday read' Goodreads reviewer, ⭐ ⭐ ⭐ ⭐ ⭐ 'Every year I read this. Every year I love it more and more. I am incapable of putting in to words my utter love for this book and everything contained within' Goodreads reviewer, ⭐ ⭐ ⭐ ⭐ ⭐ 'Satirizes the concept of belief and fear and studies themes of faith, psychological need, and fundamental fairness in his special and unique way . . . One of his best, a MUST read for Discworld fans and maybe a good start for the series by those not yet initiated' Goodreads reviewer, ⭐ ⭐ ⭐ ⭐ ⭐ 'This Pratchett tickled me in all the best places' Goodreads reviewer, ⭐ ⭐ ⭐ ⭐ ⭐ 'Pratchett shows how the stories we tell are a huge part of what makes us human. It is a delightful treat' Goodreads reviewer, ⭐ ⭐ ⭐ ⭐ ⭐ 'I really loved the Wizards in this . . . throw in Susan, Death's pragmatic, level-headed, no-nonsense granddaughter, a murder plot involving universe Auditors who hate messy humanity . . . you've got some of the best of Discworld condensed into one book. Everything about this instalment just worked' Goodreads reviewer, ⭐ ⭐ ⭐ ⭐ ⭐ 'Still as good on every reread. Pratchett at his best with better insights into humanity than anyone else' Goodreads reviewer, ⭐ ⭐ ⭐ ⭐ ⭐

Descriere

A beautiful gift-edition hardback of the classic Discworld novel.

Textul de pe ultima copertă

Who would want to harm Discworld's most beloved icon? Very few things are held sacred in this twisted, corrupt, heartless—and oddly familiar—universe, but the Hogfather is one of them. Yet here it is, Hogswatchnight, that most joyous and acquisitive of times, and the jolly, old, red-suited gift-giver has vanished without a trace. And there's something shady going on involving an uncommonly psychotic member of the Assassins' Guild and certain representatives of Ankh-Morpork's rather extensive criminal element. Suddenly Discworld's entire myth system is unraveling at an alarming rate. Drastic measures must be taken, which is why Death himself is taking up the reins of the fat man's vacated sleigh . . . which, in turn, has Death's level-headed granddaughter, Susan, racing to unravel the nasty, humbuggian mess before the holiday season goes straight to hell and takes everyone along with it.
