Description
Behind the scenes of the iconic Discworld series, a unique partnership between Terry Pratchett and artist Paul Kidby brought the fantasy world to life. This beautifully illustrated hardback reveals the creative process, from early sketches to final masterpieces, and how art and pop culture influenced the Discworld landscape. Terry Pratchett was the creative force, while Paul Kidby absorbed influences from art and culture to shape the world. The book also explores the unseen images that never made it to publication, including early covers of unwritten novels. Packed with hitherto unseen art and real stories behind it, this book offers a unique insight into one of the greatest literary partnerships. With a foreword by Colin Morgan, this book is a must-have for fans of the series and anyone interested in the creative process behind a beloved fantasy world.
