A fascinating guide to the international bestselling Discworld series and the award-winning The Wee Free Men—soon to be a major motion picture Before J. K. Rowling became the best-selling author in Britain, Terry Pratchett wore that hat. With over 45 million books sold, Pratchett is an international phenomenon. His brainchild is the Discworld series—novels he began as parodies of other works like Macbeth, Faust, and The Arabian Nights. The Wee Free Men, one of Pratchett's most popular novels, will be made into a movie by Spider-Man director Sam Raimi. It's the story of 9-year-old wannabe witch Tiffany Aching, who unites with the Nac Mac Feegle (6-inch-tall blue men who like to fight and love to drink) to free her brother from an evil fairy queen. A fun, interactive guide that will explore the land of Discword, Secrets of The Wee Free Men and Discworld is filled with sidebars, mythology trivia, and includes a bio of the fascinating author Terry Pratchett, and an in-depth analysis of his work. This unofficial guide is a great resource for readers of The Wee Free Men and the other books of the Discworld series.

Collects MICE TEMPLAR: DESTINY #1-5

He held the fate of two worlds in his hands... Once he was an orphan called Pug, apprenticed to a sorcerer of the enchanted land of Midkemia.. Then he was captured and enslaved by the Tsurani, a strange, warlike race of invaders from another world. There, in the exotic Empire of Kelewan, he earned a new name--Milamber. He learned to tame the unnimagined powers that lay withing him. And he took his place in an ancient struggle against an evil Enemy older than time itself.

Destiny, prophecy and free will collide as the young mouse Karic prepares himself for an audacious confrontation with the fearsome Snake god of the druids, for the salvation of his family, and the fate of all mice. Yet many forces stand in his way: the tyranny of the mad King Icarus, the twisted riddles of the Bats of Meave, a Scorpion god, the ancient demonic Nathair, and certain doom at the claws of the Zombie Cat!

"NIGHT'S END" On the last night of the world as it was, the restored Order of the Templar marches against the fortress stronghold of mad King Icarus. Yet as they lay siege without the guidance of Karic, the heroic young mouse that overcame their generations of prejudice and division, will everything they fight for prove lost to the horrors that arrive with the coming dawn? One Night! One glorious, terrifying battle! Where every Legend Dream, Destiny, and Prophecy will collide for the fate of the world they know! The grand finale of a 10-year creator-owned vision! Featuring a foreword by BRIAN MICHAEL BENDIS!
