Description:

He sold more hardcovers in the United Kingdom during the 1990s that any other living writer including King, Grisham, and Cornwell! Now, in the newest entry in his internationally bestselling series, Terry Pratchett takes readers to the strange and magical metropolis of Ankh-Morpork, on the world known as Discworld. There, young William de Worde has decided to start the city's first newspaper. When a high official is impeached after apparently admitting to attempted murder, our ambitious young hero finds himself plunged into the harrowing world of investigative journalism. But his sleuthing—and his predilection for always telling the truth—soon make William some very dangerous enemies in this brilliantly satirical send-up of the Fourth Estate.
