Discworld is a comic fantasy[1] book series written by the English author Terry Pratchett, set on the Discworld, a flat planet balanced on the backs of four elephants which in turn stand on the back of a giant turtle. The series began in 1983 with The Colour of Magic and continued until the final novel The Shepherd's Crown, which was published in 2015, following Pratchett's death. The books frequently parody or take inspiration from classic works, usually fantasy or science fiction, as well as mythology, folklore and fairy tales, and often use them for satirical parallels with cultural, political and scientific issues.
Forty-one Discworld novels were published. Apart from the first novel in the series, The Colour of Magic, the original British editions of the first 26 novels, up to Thief of Time (2001), had cover art by Josh Kirby. After Kirby's death in 2001, the covers were designed by Paul Kidby. The American editions, published by HarperCollins, used their own cover art. Companion publications include eleven short stories (some only loosely related to the Discworld), four popular science books, and a number of supplementary books and reference guides. The series has been adapted for graphic novels, theatre, computer and board games, and television.
Discworld books regularly topped Sunday Times best-sellers list, making Pratchett the UK's best-selling author in the 1990s. Discworld novels have also won awards such as the Prometheus Award and the Carnegie Medal. In the BBC's Big Read, four Discworld novels were in the top 100, and a total of fourteen in the top 200. More than 80 million Discworld books have been sold in 37 languages.

Genius isn't a big enough word to describe Sir Terry. I have loved every minute of his work whether reading or listening to the fantastic audiobooks read by Stephen Briggs. Thank you for sharing this. I just wish the early books such as Wyrd Sisters had been ready by Stephen as for me his character portrayals are perfect. Rest in Peace Sir Terry - you will never be forgotten.

Knowing he died right after writing it makes this one more than a bit of a tear-jerker. Mind how you go, Big Man.

Wee Free Men was my first Terry Pratchet book. I was hooked. Granny Aching remains my favourite character. She is an inspiration, as is Tiffany. Two philosophies, one from Granny, one from Tiffany, literally changed my life. They replaced trepidation with a fire in my belly. "Can I stop it?" (Not "Can anyone stop it?" or "Can we stop it?") and “Them as can do has to do for them as can't. And someone has to speak up for them as has no voices.” I've done a lot of political activism and public speaking at rallies and spent years helping Afghani refugees overseas. Both these philosophies never left my mind. I still have them both as personal creedos. I honestly don't know if I would have done it all had Terry not articulated, and cemented, what was merely brewing in my mind beforehand.

I know some of the audioook you uploaded were missing the last few sentences at the end, and I was afraid this one would too. It doesn't, the end is here. And you took care of not cutting the oh so important epilogue, too. Thank you.
