About

Ankh-Morpork gets its first newspaper, unleashing a war of words and a battle for the truth in this funny, wise, and prescient novel in Sir Terry Pratchett’s internationally bestselling Discworld series.

In the city of Ankh-Morpork, the arrival of the Ankh-Morpork Times — the city’s first newspaper — sets off upheaval. Edited by struggling scribe William de Worde and staffed by dwarfs and a vampire photographer, the paper becomes a lightning rod for controversy. When de Worde receives a tip linking the Patrician Lord Vetinari to a scandal, he must choose between what sells and what is true — and he soon learns that facts are not always the whole story.

“Pratchett’s witty reach is even longer than usual here … Readers who’ve never visited Discworld before may find themselves laughing out loud.” — Publishers Weekly

“With his humor and endless invention, Terry Pratchett has rightly dominated the fantasy genre. The Truth shows that he is still the master… Pratchett’s imagination shows no signs of flagging.” — London Times

“Pratchett’s The Truth will set you free — and laughing. … [It] sets its sights on an enduring institution, the news media, and skewers it.” — CNN
