Time isn't a toy to be played with. It's bigger than all of us. It exists outside the artificial and arbitrary divisions into which humankind has presumptuously shoehorned it. It needs to elastic. To understand truly, you have to see time as the most important resource we have. You mess with it at your peril. You can let it move fast or slowly but what you mustn't do is allow it to stop. Because when time stands still, everything stops with it. Then, there really is no future. And where would we be without one of those?
"Terry Pratchett is one of the great inventors of secondary - or imaginative or alternative - worlds. He is not derivative. He is too strong ... He has the real energy of the primary storyteller" The Times "In a better world he would be acclaimed as a great writer rather than a merely successful one ... This is the best Pratchett I've read ... Ought to be a strong contender for The Booker Prize" Sunday Telegraph "Reads with all the polished fluency and sure-footed pacing that have become Pratchett's hallmarks over the years" The Times "The unique selling point of the Discworld novels, is their irony, allied to lashings of broad pantomime humour" TES
Terry Pratchett was the acclaimed creator of the global bestselling Discworld series, the first of which, The Colour of Magic, was published in 1983. His fortieth Discworld novel, Raising Steam, was published in 2013. His books have been widely adapted for stage and screen, and he was the winner of multiple prizes, including the Carnegie Medal, as well as being awarded a knighthood for services to literature. He died in March 2015. www.terrypratchett.co.uk @terryandrob
