'A lie can run round the world before the truth can get its boots on.'
William de Worde has somehow found himself editor of Ankh-Morpork's first newspaper. Well, with a name like that . . .
Launched into the world of investigative journalism, alongside reporter Sacharissa Cripslock, William soon learns that the news is a risky business. For a start, his colleagues include a band of axe-wielding dwarfs and a recovering vampire with a life-threatening passion for flash photography.
It's a big news week: the most powerful man in the city has been arrested, leaving Ankh-Morpork without a leader. And a dangerous criminal organisation will do anything to control the story . . .
'An unmitigated delight . . . very, very funny' The Times
The Discworld novels can be read in any order but The Truth is a standalone.

A universe teeming with dwarves, trolls, witches, and social and cultural issues that parallel those in our own world, all wrapped up in Pratchett's inimitable comic delivery. This iconic series will make you laugh, then make you think.
