Description

Thief of Time by Terry Pratchett

Trade Paperback – Harper Paperbacks – March 2025 – 383 pages

Time is a resource that must be managed. It can be allowed to move quickly or slowly, but it must never stop. In the Discworld, only the venerable Monks of History are entrusted with overseeing time, to ensure that tomorrow always comes.

But a young horologist is about to start a race against time. He’s constructing the world’s first truly accurate clock, and if this Perfect Clock starts ticking, it will stop time completely. Facing a potential apocalypse, it’s up to Monk Lu-Tze, his apprentice Lobsang Ludd, and Death’s granddaughter Susan to stop him, or there really will be no tomorrow. . . .

The Discworld novels can be read in any order but Thief of Time is the fifth and final book in the Death series.
