"Pratchett's witty reach is even longer than usual here, from Pulp Fiction to His Girl Friday. Readers who've never visited Discworld before may find themselves laughing out loud." — Publishers Weekly A war of words and a battle for the truth in Terry Pratchett's bestselling Discworld series The denizens of Ankh-Morpork fancy they've seen just about everything. But then comes the Ankh-Morpork Times, struggling scribe William de Worde's upper-crust newsletter turned Discworld's first paper of record. An ethical journalist, de Worde has a proclivity for investigating stories—a nasty habit that soon creates powerful enemies eager to stop his presses. And what better way than to start the Inquirer, a titillating (well, what else would it be?) tabloid that conveniently interchanges what's real for what sells. But de Worde's got an inside line on the hot story concerning Ankh-Morpork's leading patrician, Lord Vetinari. The facts say Vetinari is guilty. But as William de Worde learns, facts don't always tell the whole story. There's that pesky little thing called . . . the truth. The Discworld novels can be read in any order.

William de Worde is the accidental editor of the Discworld's first newspaper. Now he must cope with the traditional perils of a journalist's life - people who want him dead, a recovering vampire with a suicidal fascination for flash photography, some more people who want him dead in a different way and, worst of all, the man who keeps begging him to publish pictures of his humorously shaped potatoes. William just wants to get at THE TRUTH. Unfortunately, everyone else wants to get at William. And it's only the third edition... The Truth is Terry Pratchett's 25th Discworld novel.

The truth will out, or at least it's going to try to, any minute. New printing technology means that words just won't obediently stay nailed down like usual. They can now be taken apart and used to make other words. Which is downright dangerous. There's a very real threat of news getting out there. Of people finding out what's really going on. And the powers that be aren't happy - they want that to be far from the truth. If they are to call a halt to this madness of free speech, they may have to succumb to their despotic tendencies. But will they, in this brave new world, still be able to have the last word?

A FEW OF THE MANY COMPLIMENTARY COMMENTS THE BOOK HAS RECEIVED 'I can't think of a single editor who has been as candid about their failings . . . Richard Harris, one-time editor of the News & Star in Carlisle has written a frank autobiography admitting that he wasn't up to the job of running a regional daily newspaper' - Roy Greenslade, media correspondent, The Guardian 'This is much more than a book about journalism. It's a great read and proof that, whether or not Richard Harris can edit, he can certainly write - Paul Linford, Editor, Hold The Front Page 'I had read the whole thing cover to cover within 24 hours and was so hooked I was even attempting to carry on reading while stationary at traffic lights' - Patrick Hill, Freelance journalist 'Bathos, pathos, such a lot of humour and not a little real emotional impact' - David Guide, retired journalist 'He says: "I never wanted to be a journalist but I've loved every minute of it." And I loved every page of his book,' - Anton Rippon, Sports Journalists Association
