Description

A definitive annotated edition of one of the greatest of Terry Pratchett's multi-million-bestselling Discworld novels

'A master storyteller' A.S. Byatt

'Both comic and dark, blending high fantasy, twisted storytelling and all manner of wordplay... a fine place to start reading Pratchett' The New York Times Book Review

Commander Sam Vimes of the Ankh-Morpork City Watch is in hot pursuit of a serial killer. The trouble is, a well-timed lightning strike has thrown both policeman and pursued into the city's past. Now Vimes must relive the history that made him: a cruel regime, a bloody revolution, a corrupt police force, and, most unnerving of all, a keen young recruit named Sam Vimes... Night Watch, which draws on inspirations as far ranging as Victor Hugo and M*A*S*H, is a keen satire about the true nature of political power, and the sacrifices made in the name of the greater good; but also a profoundly empathetic novel about community, connection and the tenacity of the human spirit.

This edition of Night Watch - written at the height of Pratchett's imaginative powers - includes a new foreword by Rob Wilkins and an introduction and annotations by Dr David Lloyd and Dr Darryl Jones, contextualising the novel and Pratchett's far-reaching legacy for new readers and current fans alike.
