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.
"Pratchett's witty reach is even longer than usual here, fromPulp FictiontoHis Girl Friday.Readers who've never visited Discworld before may find themselves laughing out loud."--Publishers Weekly
The Discworld has seen just about everything. Then comes theAnkh-Morpork Times, its first paper of record, edited by struggling scribe William de Worde, and staffed by a band of axe-wielding dwarfs and a recovering vampire with a life-threatening passion for flash photography.
Reporting the news is a risky business. An ethical journalist, de Worde has a nasty habit of investigating stories that quickly creates powerful enemies eager to stop his presses. And what better way than to start theInquirer,a titillating tabloid that conveniently interchanges what's real for what sells.
When de Worde gets a tip on a hot story concerning Ankh-Morpork's leading patrician, Lord Vetinari, all hell breaks loose, leaving the city without a leader. The facts say Lord Vetinari is guilty. But as William de Worde learns, facts don't always tell the whole story. There's that pesky little thing called . . . the truth.
