Reviews

A true genius . . . Roald Dahl is my hero

—— David Walliams

The appealing humourous drawings on every page will make this an instant favourite

—— Carousel

Perfect for that potentially tricky new reader stage and especially for those who revel in otherness

—— Books for Keeps

Thoroughly entertaining, with amusing illustrations and a subtle underlying message about discrimination

—— 100 Best Books, 1998, Young Book Trust

Take our word for it, this book is going to be huge.

—— Stylist

Brilliantly paced with more than a few nasty surprises, Half Bad is a wickedly addictive read that will capture the imagination of any fan of YA fiction.

—— Starburst

Not since the Harry Potter books - yes, I said it! - have I felt so fully immersed in an author's creation... I couldn't be more stoked over Half Bad, and this launch novel of a trilogy truly deserves all the hype surrounding it - and much more...

—— Amanda Hurley, Inkwood Books

Pratchett's final work is a tour de force of compassion, great wit, and gleeful storytelling.

—— Publishers Weekly (starred review)

A worthy crown to Terry Pratchett’s phenomenal artistic achievement.

—— Michael Dirda , Washington Post

The last Discworld offering is a poignant farewell, both to Pratchett's readership and to his extraordinary world.

—— Imogen Russell Williams , Metro

As ever in Pratchett's work, empathy and compassion are foregrounded. With its humour and humaneness, it reminds us, too, that its author, as Tiffany says of her deceased friend, 'is . . . was . . . unfollowable.'

—— James Lovegrove , Financial Times

Something to treasure

—— Kirkus Reviews

Funny, sad and extremely moving . . . most will likely consider it one of the strongest, and certainly one of the most – possibly the most – moving [of the Discworld novels].

—— Juliette Harrisson , Den of Geek
