Description

The Ankh-Morpork Archives: A Discworld Anthology (Volume II) by Terry Pratchett and Stephan Briggs with illustrations by Paul Kidby

Hardcover – Victor Gollancz – Apr 2022 – 252 pages

Containing material unavailable for twenty years — this is a comprehensive guide to the capital city of Terry Pratchett’s Discworld, getting to the heart of Ankh-Morpork’s secrets, societies and guilds.

Ankh-Morpork is a bottomless pit of secrets. It’s time to unearth a few more . . .

In the second volume of this confidential guide, brave travellers are made privy to the inner workings of more illustrious Ankh-Morpork societies.

Disabuse yourself of notions of professionalism under which you may hold the City Watch; discover what serious business is undertaken by the Fools’ Guild (joking is no laughing matter); and, should you be lucky, achieve true enlightenment through the teachings of Lu-Tze.

One thing’s for sure: after you’ve read this book, Ankh-Morpork’s Guilds are going to need to come up with new ways of doing things.

Completely revamped and redesigned, this full-colour book contains material from Discworld Diaries across the decades.
