Books by Terry Pratchett

Terry Pratchett (1948–2015) was a British author best known for the Discworld series, a forty-one-novel fantasy sequence set on a flat world carried through space on the back of a giant turtle. He was the UK's bestselling author of the 1990s. His work combined broad comedy with serious moral philosophy, and his later novels grew increasingly dark as he explored political corruption, justice, and mortality. He was diagnosed with early-onset Alzheimer's disease in 2007 and became a prominent advocate for assisted dying before his death. He was knighted in 2009.
