The Compleat Discworld Atlas

Purchased this for my husband as a birthday gift as he is a big Terry Pratchet fan, and he was over the moon with it

Excellent

Here I am - aged 50 - and possibly my favourite present (to myself) of the season is an atlas relating to a fictitious world. It's beautifully presented and runs through the continents with wit and captivating artwork.... There's also a big map tucked into the back pocket with demographic information - bliss. Now if only getting there was as easy as catching a train! I am a compleat Discworld nut so am virtually guaranteed to give anything from "The Emporium" 5 stars - oh and the paper's nice and shiny too.

Whats not to love? Have to say, the big map was an absolute bonus

the book itself was first class,but the inserted map was in very poor condition ,i would be happy with a replacement map

THE BOOK ARRIVED IN PERFECT CONDITION. I HAVE BEEN COLLECTING TERRY PRATCHETT,S WORK SINCE THE LATE 70s AND HAVE ALL THE DISCWORLD, BOOKS BAR A FEW. AND THIS IS ONE OF THEM. HE WILL BE SADLY MISSED BY HIS MANY FANS. P.S. THE LAST ONE BEFORE THIS ONE WAS (SHAKING HANDS WITH DEATH) I HAVE A TERMINAL ILLNESS MY SELF SO READING THIS SMALL BOOK GIVES ME A BIG COMFORT, WELL DONE TERRY ...

Funny, beautifully illustrated, even informative! All that u expect from the disc world. Comes with huge pullout map. A must for disc world fans.

Excellent price considering it's £25 in the book shop. Quite a staggering difference, I'm not sure it's worth £25 but then I'm sure avid pratchett fans would disagree (it's a gift for a friend) and this coming from someone who spent £80 on the Harry Potter page to screen hardback 😏

Très beau livre, avec une belle édition, de beaux matériaux, une belle impression et une carte gigantesque en annexe. Le livre est bourré de détails et de clins d’œil à l'univers de Pratchett, immanquable pour tout fan. Habitué aux versions françaises, j'ai trouvé cette édition en anglais bien sympa pour lire en VO les noms de lieux et de personnages originaux. On se rend compte du talent de traducteur de M. Couton, capable de rendre en français les jeux de mots anglais, en en respectant l'esprit. Je ne sais pas si une traduction française est prévue pour cet atlas, mais en tant que telle, cette édition anglaise est indispensable, et relativement accessible pour qui parle un peu d'anglais !

Libro - mapa ideal para fans de la saga Mundodisco, tan solo el mapa ya vale lo que cuesta. Me ha encantado. Edición lujosa, cuidada, con un buen papel y tapa dura con sobrecubierta y marcapáginas de tela. Eso sí hay que tener en cuenta, es edición inglesa (en español no existe).

Nice quality of the print. The book is amazing.

It's Pratchett. What would you expect? Awesome, of course.

Did you know the official currency of Ephebe is the derechmi? Or that the capital of Djelibeybi is New Djeli? Or that The Chalk's exports are sheep, wool, cheese, lamb, and sheep? The Compleat Discworld Atlas is a wonderful reference guide for any Discworld fan. It includes all kinds of facts, history, and trivia about locations all around the Discworld, and is just packed full of wonderful illustrations. There is even a handy gazetteer at the back, so you can easily find your favourite place. The two-sided, full-colour map included separately at the back of the book is worth the price itself. It is absolutely gorgeous. One side shows a map of the entire Discworld with major cities and features labelled. The other side is a fabulous illustration of the Discworld sitting on the back of the Great A'tuin, with two of the elephants just peeking out from underneath, and the pantheon of gods along the top. The Compleat Discworld Atlas is a great companion to The Compleat Ankh-Morpork: City Guide and Mrs Bradshaw's Handbook: To Travelling Upon the Ankh-Morpork & Sto Plains Hygienic Railway . It actually is the same form factor as The Compleat Ankh-Morpork. All three, along with the older maps, really help develop the lore surrounding the Discworld.
