The Ankh-Morpork Archives: Volume One

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.

Think you know Ankh-Morpork? Think again.

In this top-secret guide, intrepid explorers will experience the real city.

If you''ve ever wondered where Unseen University students wet their whistles (while avoiding their teachers as they do the same), or pondered just what the Assassins'' Guild constitutes a proper means of inhumation - there are standards to be upheld - this is the book for you.

That''s right, have yourself a glimpse of what actually goes on in the city''s societies. Cut the chaff, peek behind the curtain, see how the sausage gets made . . . err, you get the idea.

Just don''t let the Thieves'' Guild catch you with this. They won''t appreciate their methods being flogged behind their back. Flogging''s their job.

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