You can join them on these adventures, and many more, in this incredible collection of stories . . . From the greatest imagination there ever was. Written for local newspapers when Terry Pratchett was a young lad, these never previously published stories are packed full of anarchic humour and wonderful wit. A must-have for Terry fans . . . and young readers looking for a fix of magic.

All in all, things could be going a lot better for her. When Lucy reluctantly agrees to go on the Woodward High Reunion Cruise, she's feeling pretty miserable about her place in the world. ...And that's before the shipwreck.Now Lucy's somehow marooned in the Ice Age.

It shouldn't be that hard.After all, they have a few days left before the volcano erupts.
