She leant over her desk and called up the area engineer. Discworld is a comic fantasy book series written by the English author Terry Pratchett, set on the Discworld, a flat planet balanced on the backs of four. You got them sometimes shy silent types who preferred to drift across the ocean after the volcano teams, dreamily laying complicated archipelagos with indecent skill. But then, perhaps he was a Thoreau type who just liked islands. A man who could lay down a beach like that, with the shells just right, deserved better things. As Kin watched, another metre of beach spilled out of the big back hopper. No brochure would have shown the nightmare bulk of the pontoon-mounted strata machine, the small model for islands and atolls under fifteen kilometres.
White water broke over the outer reef, and the beach was of crushed white coral and curious shells. At the moment Kin’s office overlooked a palm-fringed lagoon. It was, of course, a beautiful day – a Company brochure day. Among other oddities in there are the tyrannosaurus with a wristwatch and the Neanderthal skull with gold fillings in three teeth. There is a room in the basement of the Natural History Museum which they keep locked. I saw an ammonite, apparently squashed in the fossil footprint of a sandal. I met a mine foreman who has a piece of coal with a 1909 gold sovereign embedded in it.

Within the history of Discworld there are many individual stories, which can be read in any order, but reading them in sequence can increase your enjoyment through the accumulation of all the fine detail that contributes to the teeming imaginative complexity of this brilliantly conceived world. The Discworld Series is a continuous history of a world not totally unlike our own except that it is a flat disc carried on the backs of four elephants astride a giant turtle floating through space, and that it is peopled by, among others, wizards, dwarves, policemen, thieves, beggars, vampires and witches. Terry Pratchett was knighted for services to literature in 2009.
Worldwide sales of his books are now 60 million, and they have been translated into 37 languages. Terry Pratchett is the acclaimed creator of the Discworld series, started in 1983 with The Colour of Magic, and which has now reached 38 novels.
