Terry Pratchett's incredible Discworld, floating through space on the backs of four elephants standing on a giant turtle, supports some of the most popular characters ever imagined in the worlds of fantasy fiction.

But the Discworld people are real, even il their world is a little... fantastic. Readers have their favourites and debates rage as to exactly how they really look.

Now they're here, warts (except in the case of Granny Weatherwax) and all. Terry Pratchett and artist Paul Kidby have got together to imagine everyone, from Rincewind the incompetent wizard to Greebo the rather human cat, in sketches and fabulous full-colour pages.

These are the Discworld people - REAL !

Terry Pratchett lives in Wiltshire and a permanent dread that he may not be keeping up with th mail. When not answering letters, he writes books -usually about the Discworld (twenty so far). Apart from that, he keeps himself to himself and tries not to bother people.

Paul Kidby became a freelance illustrator in 1986. Since the he has worked on various projects ranging from computer game packaging to magazine covers. He began reading the Discworld novels in 1993 and was immediately inspired. Paul lives in Somerset with his wife and three children - Sharleen, Shawn and Pewsey.
