Discworld: Embodying the Legend

Discworld was born in the imagination of its creator, the legendary Terry Pratchett, but over the course of more than forty books, it has taken on a life of its own. Discworld floats through space on the backs of four elephants, standing on a gigantic turtle; there used to be five elephants, but that's a story for another time. This is a world full of magic, a land of contrasts and extremes: from the bustling Ankh-Morpork, the oldest metropolis on the Disc, to the ancient empire of Klatch, where the word 'murder' has fifteen synonyms. This art book presents the journey of artist Paul Kidby through the Disc— in vibrant colors or austere monochrome. It is a kaleidoscope of characters who have won the hearts of millions of readers around the world, with comments from Sir Terry himself about how they were created. This is Discworld: Embodying the Legend. For the first time in Russian! A luxurious art book with illustrations by Paul Kidby and comments from Terry Pratchett himself on the creation of Discworld. A magnificent gift for all fans of Sir Terry's work.
