9.  Notes on publishers & ISBNs (International Standard Book Numbers),
    and on book formats

9.1 Note on uk publishers & ISBNs
9.2 Note on merkin publishers & ISBNs.
9.3 Note on non-english language editions' publishers & ISBNs.
9.4 Note on book formats.

----------------------------------------

 The blurbs given here are to UK & Commonwealth editions.

 Note on Publishers, ISBNs, and book formats at end of this bibliography;
 but briefly, "p/b" indicates a uk paperback, "mmp/b" a merkin (us) mass
 market paperback edition, whilst "h/cvr" signifies a hardcover edition.

 %A = author    %T = title     %I = imprint     %D = date of publication

 Note on cover artists.

  Josh Kirby is the single artist most popularly associated with Terry's
 books, though he was not in fact the first artist to produce cover art
 for his work - Terry himself did that - nor even that of the very first
 Discworld novel, _The Colour of Magic_; but he was Transworld's choice
 for cover artist for the first p/b of this, and has graced - or disgraced
 (<g>) the covers of the uk editions of the Discworld books ever since -
 with one exception: Transworld tested a "serious" cover on a printing of
 _The Colour of Magic_ in an apparent attempt to broaden the sales appeal
 to encompass sad people hitherto put off what some have described as lit-
 erature, by visibly non-serious cover art. the attempt was not entirely
 successful, and has not been repeated - or even reprinted.

  the (merkin) mmp/bs from New American Library (later Penguin USA) Signet
 /Roc have featured cover artwork by Darrell K. Sweet that most, but not
 all, who have compared with Josh Kirby's, concur to be less in sympathy
 with the feel of the Discworld (though by no means necessarily less true
 to the descriptions of the characters in Terry's text; rather, the reverse).
 apparently the Signet/Roc mmp/bs of _The Light Fantastic_, _Equal Rights_,
 & _Mort_ use josh kirby's artwork. [these not seen by myself; but i suspect,
 this being so, the cover art of _The Colour of Magic_ does, too.(ppint.)]

  later merkin h/cvr editions published by HarperCollins have altogether
 more "serious" cover art: designs deemed to be symbolic of the novels,
 rather than illustrative of them, by Michael Sabanosh, & Carl D.Galian.

1st edition h/cvr blurb (thank-you for the d-j, colin smythe :-) ):

         Terry Pratchett has invented a phantasmagorical universe in
        which a blissfully naive interplanetary tourist called Two-
        flower joins up with a drop-out wizard whose spells only seem
        to work half of the time. Together they undertake a chaotic
        voyage through a crazy world filled with monsters and dragons,
        heroes and knaves. Pratchett has taken the sword and sorcery
        fantasy tradition and turned it in its ear to create an enter-
        taining and bizarre spoof.

h/cvr blurb (of the 1995 printing):

        Since the publication of _The Colour of Magic_ in 1983, Terry
        Pratchett's Discworld series (described by the _Guardian_ as
        `a sequence of unalloyed delight') now has seventeen bestselling
        titles currently in print, every one of which has received rapt-
        urous reviews. As the American _Publisher's Weekly_ wrote, in
        this first volume of the series Rincewind, an inept wizard, takes
        on the job of `shepherding a naive actuary, Twoflower, his world's
        first tourist, through a series of increasingly hazardous and out-
        rageous adventures. Assisting Rincewind's rather inconsistent pow-
        ers in protecting Twoflower is the Luggage, a sentient trunk that
        follows him through all manner of adversity on its hundreds of
        little legs. Heroic barbarians, chthonic monsters, beautiful prin-
        cesses and fiery dragons; they're all here, but none of them is
        doing business as usual.'

p/b blurb:

        Jerome K. Jerome meets _Lord of the Rings_ (with a touch of _Peter
        Pan_)...[this first part omitted from the 1994 re-set p/b edition]

        On a world supported on the back of a giant turtle (sex unknown),
        a gleeful, explosive, wickedly eccentric expedition sets out.

        There's an avaricious but inept wizard, a naive tourist whose
        luggage moves on hundreds of dear little legs, dragons who only
        exist if you believe in them, and of course THE EDGE of the
        planet...

         The wackiest and most original fantasy since _Hitchhikers Guide
        to the Galaxy_.

h/cvr blurb:

        In _The Colour of Magic_, the singularly inept and cowardly wiz-
        ard Rincewind, Twoflower, the Discworld's first tourist, and his
        remarkable Luggage, were last seen falling off its edge, with no
        help in sight.
         In this sequel, the Discworld is moving towards a seemingly in-
        evitable collision with a malevolent red star, and it has only
        one possible saviour. Unfortunately this happens to be Rincewind. . .

p/b blurb:

        As it moves towards a seemingly inevitable collision with a mal-
        evolent red star, the Discworld has only one possible saviour.
        Unfortunately, this happens to be the singularly inept and coward
        -ly wizard called Rincewind, who was last seen falling off the
        edge of the world ....
        The funniest and most unorthodox fantasy in this or any other galaxy.

h/cvr blurb:

        Plodding through the eternal void is the great turtle A'Tuin. On
        his back (or hers - the question is unresolved) stand four eleph-
        ants. And supported on the elephants' shoulders is. . . Discworld,
        planet of magic and misadventure!

        Predicting his own death, the wizard Drum Billet sets out to pass
        on his power and his staff to his predicted successor, the eighth
        son of an eighth son. But there is a problem. The eighth son turns
        out to be a daughter, and women aren't supposed to be wizards.
        (`Where does it say women can't be wizards?' `It doesn't say it
        anywhere, it says it everywhere.') But it's too late: Eskarina in-
        herits the wizard's staff, and with the reluctant help of the witch
        Granny Weatherwax sets out to learn her new calling.

p/b blurb:

        The last thing the wizard Drum Billet did, before Death laid a bony
        hand on his shoulder, was to pass on his staff of power to the eighth
        son of an eighth son. Unfortunately for his colleagues in the chauv-
        inistic (not to say mysogynistic) world of magic, he failed to check
        on the new-born baby's sex ...
        A third hilarious adventure by the author of _The Colour of Magic_
        and _The Light Fantastic_.

h/cvr blurb:

        In _Mort_, Terry Pratchett returns to `Discworld', the setting
        for his popular series of comic fantasy novels, _The Colour of
        Magic_, _The Light Fantastic_, and _Equal Rites_.

        Mort is an unpromising, gangling teenager who becomes as apprent-
        ice to Death, but proves less than gifted at his new task of ush-
        ering souls out of the world. In fact, when it comes to the rath-
        er attractive Princess Keli (due to be assassinated) Mort fluffs
        it completely. He kills the assassin instead, thus interfering
        with the implacable workings of Fate. But reality isn't changed
        so easily; history as it should have been begins to take shape
        around Keli's city-state of Sto Lat. Can Mort save Keli before
        she is squeezed out of existence?

        Death, having delegated much of his work to Mort, is displaying
        disturbingly human characteristics: drinking, dice-playing and
        becoming curious about the nature of fun. Mort, meanwhile, is
        becoming much less cheery and showing a worrying tendency to
        SPEAK IN HOLLOW CAPITALS...

p/b blurb:

        Death comes to us all.  When he came to Mort, he offered him a job.

        After being assured that being dead was not compulsory, Mort accept-
        ed.  However, he soon found that romantic longings did not mix eas-
        ily with the responsibilities of being Death's apprentice...

%D 8/98
ISBN 0-451-.....-. (n.y.k.)

h/cvr blurb:

        A sourcerer is born - a wizard so powerful that by comparison all
        other magic is just mucking around in pointy hats.
         And his very existence brings the Discworld, which is of course
        flat and rides through space on the back of an enormous turtle, to
        the very verge of all-out thaumaturgical war*.
         All that stands in the way is Rincewind, the failed magician, who
        wants to save the world, or at least that part of it which contains
        him. More new characters join the Discworld adventure: Conina the
        barbarian hairdresser, Nijel the Destroyer (whose mother still makes
        him wear woolly underwear) and possibly the first yuppie genie, who's
        into lamps as a growth area.
         This time the adventure goes east, or hubwards, or whatever. It
        doesn't simply draw heavily on _Omar Khayyam_, _Raiders of the Lost
        Ark_, the _1001 Nights_ and every Arabian B-movie ever made, it
        scribbles on them as well. . .

        * A bad thing


p/b blurb:

        There was an eighth son of an eighth son.  He was, quite naturally,
        a wizard.  And there it should have ended. However (for reasons we'd
        better not go into), he had seven sons.  And then he had an eighth
        son ... a wizard squared ... a source of magic ... a Sourcerer.

h/cvr blurb:

        Kingdoms wobble, crowns topple and knives flash on the magical
        Discworld as the statutory three witches meddle in royal politics.
         But Granny Weatherwax (of _Equal Rites_) and her fellow coven
        members find it's all a lot more difficult than playwrights would
        have you believe. . .
         Everything you'd expect is here - hunchbacked kings, lost crowns
        and disguised heirs. And they are joined by things you haven't
        heard of yet, like a stage-struck thunderstorm and the first record-
        ed instance of the in-flight refuelling of a broomstick. Through it
        all the wyrd sisters ("This cauldron's got all _yuk_ in it!") battle
        against frightful odds to put the rightful king on the throne.
          At least, that's what they think. . .
         _Wyrd Sisters_ is the sixth of Terry Pratchett's Discworld novels,
        which are now well-established as the funniest fantasy series ever -
        and among the funniest novels of any kind currently being published.

p/b blurb:

        Witches are not by their nature gregarious, and they certainly don't
        have leaders. Granny Weatherwax was the most highly-regarded of the
        leaders they didn't have. But even *she* found that meddling in royal
        politics was a lot more difficult than certain playwrights would have
        you believe ...

h/cvr blurb:

        It isn't easy, being a teenage pharoah. You're not allowed to carry
        money, uninhibited young women peel your grapes for you, everyone
        thinks you're responsible for making the sun rise and the corn grow,
        you keep dreaming about seven thin cows and seven fat cows* and, on
        top of everything else, the Great Pyramid has just exploded because
        of paracosmic instability.

        And then you've got to deal with all these assassins, sphinxes, huge
        wooden horses, mad high priests, philosophers, sacred crocodiles,
        gods, marching mummies, jobbing pyramid builders and Hat, the Vult-
        ure-Headed God of Unexpected Guests.

        And all you _really_ wanted was the chance to do something for young
        people and the inner cities.

        Definitely the funniest Discworld book since the last one.

        Teppic for the task assigned to him by fate. He inherited the throne
        of the desert kingdom of Djelibeybi rather earlier than he expected
        (his father wasn't too happy about it either), but that was only the

        _`Of all the cities in the world it could have flown into, it flew
        into mine. . .'_

        Some night-time prowler is turning the citizens of Ankh-Morpork,
        greatest city of the fantasy Discworld*, into something resembling
        small charcoal biscuits.

        And that's a real problem for Captain Vimes of the City Watch, who
        must tramp the mean streets of the city searching for a seventy-
        foot-long fire-breathing dragon which, he believes, can help him
        with their enquiries.

        In a city thrown into turmoil by magic, charcoal biscuits, secret
        societies and mad lady dragon breeders (`Just tell him _sit_ if he's
        bothering you'), he's just looking for the facts.

        * Which is flat and rides through space on the back of four elephants
        who stand on the shell of an enormous turtle, as every scholar knows.


p/b blurb:

        This is where the dragons went.  They lie... not dead, not asleep,
        but... dormant.  And although the space they occupy isn't like normal
        space, nevertheless they are packed in tightly.  They could put you
        in mind of a can of sardines, if you thought sardines were huge and
        scaly.  And presumably, somewhere, there's a key ...

h/cvr (& vlf p/b back cover) blurb:

        You've heard of Faust...

        This is Eric.

        There's a difference.

        Eric is fourteen, lives on the famed and magical Discworld, and is
        the first ever demonology hacker. Fortunately, he doesn't succeed
        in raising any devils, but he does raise Rincewind (the most incom-
        petent wizard in the universe) and the Luggage (the world's most
        dangerous travel accessory).

        When Eric turns them loose on an unprotected world, the idea is that
        Rincewind will grant him his three rather adolescent wishes.

        You know. The usual three. Live forever, rule the world, meet the
        most beautiful woman who ever lived. Simple, really...

        Getting marooned at the dawn of Time, changing the future and meet-
        ing history's most embarrassing god is only the start. Creating life
        on the Discworld is a mere detail.

        Because Rincewind ends up going through Hell.

        Literally.

        It'll never be the same again.

a format p/b blurb:

        Eric is the Discworld's only demonology hacker.

        Pity he's not very good at it.

        All he wants is three wishes granted.  Nothing fancy - to be imm-
        ortal, rule the world, have the most beautiful woman in the world
        fall madly in love with him, the usual stuff.

        But instead of a tractable demon, he calls up Rincewind, probably
        the most incompetent wizard in the universe, and the extremely
        _intractable_ and hostile form of travel accessory known as the
        Luggage.

        With them on his side, Eric's in for a ride through space and time
        that is bound to make him wish (quite fervently) again - this time
        that he'd never been born.

        Death is missing - presumed ... er ... gone.

        Which leads to the kind of chaos you _always_ get when an import-
        ant public service is withdrawn.

        Ghosts and poltergeists fill up the Discworld. Dead Rights act-
        ivist Reg Shoe - `You Don't Have to Take This Lying Down' - sud-
        denly has more work than he had ever dreamed of.  And newly de-
        ceased wizard Windle Poons wakes up in his coffin to find that he
        has come back as a corpse.

        But it's up to Windle and the members of Ankh-Morpork's rather
        unfrightening group of undead (*) to save the world for the
        living.

        Meanwhile, on a little farm far, far away, a tall, dark stranger
        is turning out to be really good with a scythe. There's a harvest
        to be got in.  And a different battle to be fought.

        (*) Arthur Winkings, for example, became a vampire after being
        bitten by a lawyer.  Schleppel the bogeyman would be better at
        his job if he wasn't agoraphobic and frightened of coming out of
        the closet.  And Mr Ixolite is a banshee with a speech impedim-
        ent, so instead of standing on the roof and screaming when
        there's a death in the house he writes `OooEeeOooEeeOoo' on a
        piece of paper and pushes it under the door.

        Garlick, travelling to the distant city of Genua, things are
        never that simple ...

        they're up against the malignant power of the Godmother herself,
        who has made Destiny an offer it can't refuse. And finally
        there's the sheer power of the Story.

        Servant girls _have_ to marry the Prince.  That's what life is
        all about.

        You can't fight a Happy Ending.

h/cvr blurb:

        ``Be a MAN in the City Watch!  The City watch needs MEN!''

        But what it's -got- includes Corporal Carrot (technically a dwarf),
        Lance-constable Cuddy (really a dwarf), Lance-constable Detritus
        (a troll), Lance-constable Angua (a woman ... most of the time)
        and Corporal Nobbs (disqualified from the human race for shoving).

        And they need all the help they can get.  Because there's evil in
        the air and murder afoot and something very nasty in the streets.

        It'd help if it could all be sorted out by noon, because that's
        when Captain Vimes is officially retiring, handing in his badge
        and getting married.

        And since this is Ankh-Morpork, noon promises to be not just
        high, but stinking.

        twenty-four hours to clean up the town and this is *Ankh-Morpork*

        Omnibus collecting Equal Rites, Wyrd Sisters, Witches Abroad.

        Witches are not by nature gregarious and they certainly don't
        have leaders.

        Granny Weatherwax was the most highly regarded of the leaders
        they didn't have...

        Here are three novels featuring one of Terry Pratchett's most
        celebrated characters, along with her sidekicks, the fertile
        Nanny Ogg and the New Age's favourite witch, Magrat Garlick:

        EQUAL RITES

        Women aren't supposed to be wizards - but nobody told Eskarina,
        the eighth daughter of an eighth son, when she inherited her
        father's [sic] staff, and with Granny Weatherwax's reluctant
        help she sets out to learn her new calling.

        WYRD SISTERS

        In which Granny discovers that meddling in royal politics is a
        _lot_ more difficult than certain playwrights would have you
        believe.

        WITCHES ABROAD

        The funniest Grand Tour anywhere, as Granny, Nanny and Magrat
        travel to distant Genua - to make sure a servant girl _doesn't_
        marry the prince.

        Who's murdering harmless old men? who's poisoning the Patrician?

        As autumn fogs hold Anhk-Morpork in their grip, the City Watch
        have to track down a murderer who can't be seen.

        Maybe the golems know something - but the solemn men of clay,
        who work all day and night and are never any trouble to anyone,
        have started to commit suicide ...

        It's not as if the Watch hasn't got problems of its own. There's
        a werewolf suffering from Pre-Lunar Tension. Corporal Nobbs is
        hob-nobbing with the nobs, and there's something really strange
        about the new dwarf recruit, especially his earrings and
        eyeshadow.

        Who can you trust when there are mobs on the streets and
        plotters in the dark and all the clues point the wrong way?

        In the gloom of the night, Watch Commander Sir Samuel Vimes
        finds that the truth might not be out there at all.

        *_It may be in amongst the words in the head._*

        only the start...

        There's treason in the air.
        A crime has happened.

        He's not only got to find out whodunit, but howdunit too. He's not

        Introducing the Discworld's most popular character - the fellow
        with the white horse and the ultimate weight-loss programme . . .
        DEATH

        Here are three novels featuring Terry Pratchett's most celebrated
        denizen of the Discworld, together with the usual motley cast, in-
        cluding Death's granddaughter Susan, Binky and the Death of Rats.

        MORT
        Death, having delegated most of his duties to his new apprentice,
        the uncompromising, gangling teenager Mort, is showing disturbing-
        ly human characteristics: drinking, dice-playing and becoming cur-
        ious about the nature of Fun . . .

        REAPER MAN
        Death is missing, presumed . . . er . . . gone. Which leads to the
        kind of chaos you always get when an important public service is
        withdrawn.

        SOUL MUSIC
        It's hard to grow up normally when grandfather rides a white horse
        and wields a scythe - especially when you have to take over the fam-
        ily business and everyone keeps mistaking you for the Tooth Fairy.
        But Susan must face the new music that has entered the Discworld:
        it's lawless, it changes people . . . it's called Music With Rocks
        In. And it won't fade away . . .

        religious ceremony. Now he's caught up in a war between vampires
        and witches, and he's not sure there _is_ a right side.
          There're the witches - young Agnes, who is _really_ in two minds
        about everything, Magrat, who is trying to combine witchcraft and
        nappies, Nanny Ogg, who is far too knowing... and Granny Weatherwax,
        who is big trouble.
          And the vampires are _intelligent_ - not easily got rid of with a
        garlic enema or bu going to the window, grasping the curtains and
        saying, "I don't know about you, but isn't it a bit stuffy in here?"
        They've got style and fancy waistcoats.
        They're out of the casket and want a bite of the future.
           Mightily Oats knows he has a prayer, but wishes he had an axe.

        This is how the Discworld began...
         In _The Colour of Magic_ the failed wizard Rincewind burst
        upon the world and hasn't stopped running since.
         This was the book that started the phenomenally successful
        series. Here is the sapient pearwood luggage, a mobile trunk
        which launders any clothes put it in [sic] and incidentally
        homicidally defends its owner. Here is Twoflower, an innocent
        tourist in a world of nightmares and fairy tales gone wrong.
        Here is Cohen the Barbarian, the world's oldest and greatest
        hero. Here is Death, not such a bad sort when you get to know
        him...
         They have adventures. It'd take too long to explain. Just
        read it!

        terry has, more than once, said he feels he may slow down,
        or take a holiday from the discworld - and equally often
        discovered that there was another discworld story that in-
        sisted on being told, or another story that proved to be
        as well-suited to being set therein; and, that he has no
        intention of writing "the last discworld novel", other than
        in the sense that he himself is mortal and that he will not
        permit his creation to be franchised or otherwise given the
        artificial semblence of life thereafter, by any other hand.

        i, for one, will eagerly pounce upon any novel i find with
        his byline, whatever the world in which it is set, having
        greatly enjoyed all that he's had published, and not just
        the nowadays best-selling discworld novels: see below, for
        quite how much more than two dozen such, are available.

2.  Pre-Discworld

These books are Terry's earlier efforts, and came before the success
of "The Colour of Magic"; though The Carpet People was re-written later.


----------------------------------------
2.1 The Carpet People (1st Edition)

%A Terry Pratchett
%T The Carpet People
%I Colin Smythe (h/cvr)
%D 11/71 [this edition now out of print]
ISBN 0-900675-49-7

        Price : ukL 1.90 [1.90 GBP]      Hardback 17cm x 22cm, 195 pages
        33 B&W illustrations by _the author_; a few copies hand-coloured
        by him. Cover shows various creatures licking a large white cube.

h/cvr blurb:

        The is magic in every carpet. Cities and villages exist right under
        your feet and the people who live in them are so small that each
        tuft of wool stretches high above them like giant trees. A grain
        of sugar which has somehow found its way into the world of the
        carpet people, becomes a favourite mountain for the carpet animals
        where they go as often as possible. Dust plants make up a wonderful
        vegetation, and the world of the carpet people is as real to them
        as the earth is to us.

        But there are also creatures who live in the underlay; they appear
        to be allies of that terrible and powerful Fray who lives above the
        carpet. Whenever he passes above, he leaves destruction behind him
        in the world of the carpet people, and the creatures of the underlay
        try to take advantage of them.

        This is the story of Snibril and Glurk, the leaders of the carpet
        people and how they finally defeat the servants of Fray. It is full
        of magic battles and the day to day struggle of the brave and
        ingenious carpet people.

        Children of all ages, from 5 to 50 will enjoy this book, and the
        world of the Carpet People in the reader's own home will add a new
        dimension to his imagination.

h/cvr blurb:

        <bold red font>

        In the beginning, there was nothing but endless flatness.
        Then came the Carpet...

        </bold red font>

        That's the old story everyone knows and loves (even if they
        don't really _believe_ it). For now the Carpet is home for
        many different tribes and peoples - from the empire-building
        Dumii, to the nomadic Munrungs, the proud Deftmenes, and the
        terrible creatures from the Unswept Regions.  And there's a
        new story in the making.

        The story of the time when Fray begins to move, sweeping a
        trail of destruction across the Carpet.

        The story of the power-hungry mouls, saddling up their snargs
        and riding to the attack.

        The story of Glurk and Snibril, Munrung brothers, who set out
        on an adventure to end all adventures when their village is
        flattened.

        The story that will come to a terrible end - if someone
        doesn't do something about it. If _everyone_ doesn't do
        something about it...

p/b blurb:

        as for h/cvr, with "But now.. ..to many..." for "For now..
        ..for many..." at start 2nd para; and "..peoples and now
        there's a new story in the making. The story of Fray,
        sweeping a trail of destruction across the Carpet. The
        story of power-hungry mouls - and of two Munrung brothers,
        who set out on an adventure to end all adventures when
        their village is flattened.

        It's a story that will come to a terrible end - if someone

h/cvr blurb:

        _Probability Math:_ the science of foretelling the future. For
        Dom Sabalos, heir to an immensely rich family, its forecasts
        were curiously contradictory: he would be assassinated, and
        _after_ that, find the fabulous, almost mythical, world of the
        Jokers, who were only known by a few incredible artifacts
        scattered throughout the Galaxy.

        Any good P-Mathematician could find out this information. Some-
        body certainly wanted to prove P-Math wrong as far as Dom was
        concerned, and make sure that once he was dead, he stayed dead. A
        robot assassin, with built-in `luck', had been put on his tail,
        but what was it that protected Dom every time the assassin
        struck?

        To be sure, he had an excellent robot servant, Isaac; (class 5
        with Man-Friday subcircuitry). a planet (the First Syrian Bank)
        as a god-father, a determined and protective grandmother (who
        looked as if she had been born aged eighty), a security chief who
        even ran checks on himself, and a home world, where a missing
        hand was only a minor mishap and even death was not always fatal
        - but what protected Dom on his search for the world which he
        knew lay on the dark side of the sun:?

p/b blurb:

        Dom Salabos had a lot of advantages.
        As heir to a huge fortune, he had an excellent robot
        servant (with Man-Friday subcircuity), a planet (the First
        Syrian Bank) as a godfather, a security chief who even ran
        checks on himself, and on Dom's home world even death was
        not always fatal.
        Why then, in an age when prediction was a science, was his
        future in doubt?

h/cvr blurb:

        A flat earth? Impossible. Kin Arad is the 210-year-old super-
        visor in charge of resurfacing the newly named planet, Kingdom.
        When she finds Jago Jalo, a  man who has a cloak of invisibility
        and should have died a thousand years ago, in her office, she de-
        cides he must have an unusual tale. He has. He knows where such a
        world is. It is like the medieval earth . . . almost. Leiv Eriks-
        son is setting off for the New World, but he will never find it.
        Instead he sails to the edge of the world and its eternal water-
        fall.
        It is obvious that this `earth' has been built by the Great
        Spindle Kings, makers of universes, inventors of the strata mach-
        ine and the ultimate in claustrophobes, anmd Jalo lures the human
        Kin, the kung Marco Farfarer and the fifty-six-syllable-named
        shand better known as Silver, to undertake a voyage of discovery
        with him: the rewards must be beyond their dreams . . . or night-
        mares.


p/b blurb:

        The excavation showed that the fossilized plesiosaur had been
        holding a placard which read, "End Nuclear Testing Now". That
        was nothing unusual.
        But then came a discovery of something which *did* intrigue
        Kin Arad.
        A flat earth was something new ...

        `Outside! What's it like?' Masklin looked blank. `Well,' he said,

        `Yes? Yes?' `With, you know, things in it -'

        ...yes, _lots_ of things, and all of them a mystery to the thou-
        sands of tiny nomes living under the floorboards of a large dep-
        artment store, most of whom have never even set eyes upon the
        outside world. Things like Day and Night and Sun and Rain don't
        really exist, say all intelligent nomes. They're just daft old
        legends.

        But soon a devestating piece of news is to shatter the nomes' ex-
        istence: the Store - their world - is to be demolished...

        So it's up to Masklin, the last nome to come into the Store, to
        mastermind the unbelievable escape plan that will take all the
        nomes into the dangers of the great Outside.

        It means they have to think. And they have to think BIG.

        And they start to learn who they are and how they came to be
        there, and where their fantastic journey must one day take them.

        `In the beginning...Arnold Bros (est. 1905) created the Store.'

        When their home, a large department store, was demolished, thou-
        sands of tiny nomes made a daring and dramatic escape on a stolen
        lorry - and only just in the nick of time. The abandoned quarry
        they found was perfect for their needs.

        At last they are safe. Or are they?

        Soon strange things start to happen. Like the tops of puddles
        growing hard and cold, and the water coming down from the sky
        in frozen bits. Worse is to come though. The quarry is to be
        re-opened - their new home is under threat.

        A newspaper cutting sends three brave nomes off on a desperate
        mission which, if it succeeds, could lead them all to their ult-
        imate home...

        Meanwhile, back at the quarry, the remaining nomes prepare to
        defend their home against the intruders. But how long will they
        be able to keep the humans at bay - even _with_ the help of the
        monster Jekub?

p/b blurb:

        `And Grimma said, We have two choices. We can run, or we hide.

        abandoned quarry.  Or is it?

        Soon strange things start to happen. Like the tops of puddles

        Somewhere in a place so far up there is no down, a ship is
        waiting to take the nomes home - back to wherever they came
        from. With their home in a quarry under threat, one nome -
        Masklin - knows that they've got to find a way of contacting
        this ship.

        It means going to Florida (wherever that is), then getting to
        the launch of a communications satellite (whatever _that_ is).
        A ridiculous plan. Impossible. But Masklin doesn't know this
        so he tries to do it anyway. And the first step is to try and
        hitch a ride on a new kind of truck, a truck with wings -
        Concorde ...

        He doesn't want to cause any trouble. He only wants to steal
        one of those space shuttle things. But when you're only four
        inches high in a world full of humans, things have a nasty
        habit of getting rather complicated...

Aimed at the round-about-teenage market, "Young Adult books have fewer

h/cvr blurb:

        The mighty alien fleet from the very latest computer game
        thunders across the computer screen...

        Hands poised on the joystick, Johnny prepares to blow them
        into the usual million pieces...

        And they send him a message: _WE SURRENDER._

        They're not supposed to do that! Where does it say in the
        manual that they're supposed to do that?

        But they've done it. This time they don't want to die. They
        just want to go home.

        Johnny is the only human who knows. So he has to learn how to
        wage all-out Peace, and they don't make joysticks with a
        `Don't Fire' button...

        It's hard, trying to Save Mankind from the Galactic Hordes.
        It's even harder trying to save the Galactic Hordes from
        Mankind. But it's only a game, isn't it.

h/cvr blurb:

        `Call any time you like,' said the Alderman. `I'm always in.
        That's something you learn to be good at, when you're dead...'

        Not many people can see the dead (not many would want to).
        But twelve-year-old Johnny Maxwell can. And the dead are
        nothing like he expected. They don't lurch about. They don't
        push through walls. They can't even _dance_ like they do in
        videos. They're just people -- post-senior citizens -- and
        they're always in.

        At least, up until now. Now the council want to move them out
        so the cemetery can be sold as a building site. But the dead
        have learned a thing or two from Johnny. They're not going to
        take it lying down... especially since it's Halloween tomorrow.

        Besides, they're beginning to find that life is a lot more fun
        than it was when they were... well... alive.  Especially if they
        break a few rules...

h/cvr blurb:

        THERE WAS A FLASH OF LIGHT, THE AIR FLICKERED... AND THE WORLD
        CHANGED. IT'S MAY 21, 1941, THOUGHT JOHNNY. IT'S WAR.

        Mrs Tachyon the bag-lady is not the sort of person you'd normally
        _choose_ to hang out with. But when Johnny Maxwell and his friends
        find her semi-conscious in an alley, they have to do _something_...
        as long it it's not the kiss of life.

        The more time Johnny spends with her, the more he finds that Mrs
        Tachyon isn't the ranting old nutter everyone thinks she is.
        She seems to hold the key to different times, different eras -
        including the Blackbury Blitz in 1941. Suddenly _now_ isn't the
        safe place Johnny once though it was, as he finds himself bound
        up more and more with _then_. And, as time shifts beneath him,
        and the shopping mall and TV arials melt into air-raid sirens and
        ration books, Johnny wonders just how much changing the past can
        really change the future...

        This time-stoppingly funny, richly entertaining new adventure from
        the master of fantastical and irreverent wit, Terry Pratchett, is
        the third in the series about Johnny Maxwell, following _Only You
        Can Save Mankind_ and _Johnny and the Dead_.

p/b blurb:

        There was a flash of light, the air flickered... and the world
        changed. It's May 21, 1941, thought Johnny. It's war.

        Johnny Maxwell and his friends have to do _something_ when they
        find Mrs Tachyon, the local bag lady, semi-conscious in an alley...
        as long it it's not the kiss of life.

        But there's more to Mrs Tachyon than a squeaky trolley and a bunch
        of dubious black bags. Somehow she holds the key to different times,
        different eras - including the Blackbury Blitz in 1941. Suddenly now
        isn't the safe place Johnny once though it was, as he finds himself
        bound up more and more with then...

 authors. See also 7a. the "Discworld Non-Fiction & Art Books" section.

h/cvr blurb:

        According to the Nice and Accurate Prophecies of Agnes Nutter -
        the world's only _totally reliable_ guide to the future - the
        world will end on a Saturday.
         Next Saturday, in fact.
         Just after tea.
         Which means that Armageddon will happen on a Saturday night.
        There will be seas of fire, rains of fish, the moon turning to
        blood and the massed armies of Heaven and Hell will sort it out
        once and for all.
         Which is a major problem for Crowley, Hell's most approachable
        demon and former serpent, and his opposite number and old friend
        Aziraphale, genuine angel and Soho bookshop owner. They _like_ it
        down here (or, in Crowley's case, _up_ here).
         So they've got no alternative but to stop the Four Motorcyclists
        of the Apocalypse, defeat the marching ranks of the Witchfinder's
        army* and - somehow - stop it all happening.
         Above all (or, in Aziraphale's case, _below_ all) they need to
        find and kill the Antichrist, currently the most powerful creature
        on Earth.
         This is a shame.
         Because he's eleven years old, loves his dog even though it's real-
        ly a Satanic hellhound under all that hair, really cares about the
        environment and is the sort of boy anyone would be proud to have as
        a son. He's also totally invulnerable, and a nice kid.
         And if that isn't enough, they've still got Sunday to deal with. . .

        * All two of them.

ISBN 0-575-60155-8

first edition p/b blurb:

        Can you recognise a real, unadulterated cat when you see one?
        Or have you too grown used to the boring, mass-produced cats
        the advertising industry adores?

        Real cats never eat from bowls (at least not the ones marked
        CAT).

        Real cats never wear flea collars . . . or appear on birthday
        cards . . . or chase anything with a bell in it.

        Real cats do eat quiche. And giblets. And butter. And anything
        else left on the table. They can hear a fridge door opening two
        rooms away.

        Real cats don't need names.  But they often get called them.

        "Yaargeroffoutofityarbastard" does nicely.

7.1 Short Stories, etc.

  Terry's first published short story was "The Hades Business", in Science
 Fantasy #60 (8/63).  He has also had "Night Dweller" in _New Worlds_ #187
 (c.2/69); & _Time Out_ magazine's Christmas 1987 issue (number 904/5) had
 "Twenty Pence With Envelope and Seasonal Greeting". "Final Reward" was
 published in the magazine _GM_ (10/88) and is about a barbarian and a
 shopping trolly; "Theatre of Cruelty", appeared in the W.H.Smith freebie
 'zine Bookcase, #45 (jul-aug 1993)[no ISSN], illustr. with artwork (some-
 what overprinted by the text) by Josh Kirby, spread across the bottom of
 the two pages, and was expanded for programme book of OryCon 15 convention
 [see _Wizards of Odd_, below]. "History in the Faking" was published in
 the Weekend section of The Evening Standard, London 2/2/90; "The Megabyte
 Drive to Believe in Santa Claus" was in the Western Daily Press, Bristol,
 24/12/96; "Let There Be Dragons" (guest of honour speech given at the Book-
 sellers Association dinner 4/93) was printed in _The Bookseller_ 11/6/93.
  Terry also wrote the forward for the 1989 Corgi publication of Roy Lewis'
 _The Evolution Man_ (penguin p/b 1960) (merkin berkley mmp/b a.k.a. _Once
 Upon an Ice Age_; originally _What We Did to Father_ Hutchinson (1960)
 h/cvr, with embellishments - b+w cartoons, some full page - by Hewison.)

   title:                                first publication:

 - plus: a new episodic discworld story by terry is included in the book,
 The Science of Discworld [see 7a.17; this story is illustrative of some
 of the main points discussed by ian stewart & jack cohen, but it is, in
 my opinion, capable of being read by itself [ppint.]. its chapters are
 entitled, but there is no title given for the story as a whole].

  his short stories appear in several anthologies, some being their original
 publications, as noted below : for a full listing of their contents, e-mail
 me [[e-mail]] and i'll give all the information i have for a
 title.

        Being Death's apprentice is a good job. Board and lodging, free
        use of company horse, and you don't even need time off for your
        grandmother's funeral. Looking like a skeleton is not compulsory,
        either.

        And you meet lots of interesting people. Although, of course, not
        for very long.

        All in all, it's a job for life.

        Well, nearly. It would have been if Mort had remembered that he
        wasn't supposed to rescue princesses. After that it all began to
        go dead wrong.

        in peril. And who stands between the Kingdom and Destruction? Three
        witches. Granny Weatherwax (intolerant, self-opinionated, powerful),
        Nanny Ogg (down-to-earth, vulgar) and Magrat Garlick (naive, fond of

Blurb:
        Death comes to us all. When he came to Mort, he offered him a job.
        But when Mort is left in charge for an evening, he allows his heart
        to rule his head and soon the whole of causality and the future of
        the Discworld itself, are at rist. Along the way, Mort encounters not
        only Death's adopted daughter, Yeabell - who has been 16 for 35 years
        and his mysterious man servant Albert - whose cooking can harden an
        artery at 10 paces - but also an incompetent wizard with a talking
        doorknocker and a beautiful, but rather bad-tempered and dead,
        princess.

        On Terry Pratchett's Discworld, Death really is a 7 foot skeleton in
        a black hooded robe and weilding a scythe. He is also fond of cats,
        enjoys a good curry, and rides around the scies on a magnificent white
        horse called Binky.

        Terry Pratchett's infamous city of Ankh-Morpork is under threat
        from a 60-foot-fire-breathing dragon, summoned by a secret society
        of malcontented tradesmen.

        Defending Ankh-Morpork against this threat is the entire, underpaid,
        undervalued City Night Watch - a drunken and world-weary Captain, a
        cowardly and overweight Sergeant, a small opportunistic Corporal of
        dubious parentage...and their newest recruit, Lance-Corporal Carrot,
        who is upright, literal, law-abiding and keen. Aiding them in their
        fight for truth, justice and the Ankh-Morporkian way are a small
        swamp dragon and the Librarian of Unseen University (who just happ-
        ens to be an orangutan).

        Stephen Briggs has been involved in amateur dramatics for over 25
        years and he assures us that the play can be staged without needing
        the budget of Industrial Light and Magic. Not only that, but the
        cast should still be able to be in the pub well before closing time.

        It kills without compunction. It is the first gun on the Discworld.

        The original Watch - Captain Vimes, Sergeant Colon, Corporal Carrot

        The World is Round... And Also Flat!

        It's obvious really. Everyone [1] knows it.

        The Disc rests on the back of four giant elephants, who in turn stand
        on the back of Great A'Tuin, the only turtle to form the basis of an
        entire branch of astrophysics.

        For the last few years, events on the Discworld have been chronicled
        in the works of Terry Pratchett. Fans have learned of the adventures
        of Rincewind, the incompetent wizard, Granny Weatherwax, the witch
        [known to trolls as "She Who Must Be Avoided]. Captain Carrot the six-
        foot dwarf, Archchancellor Ridcully, Susan Sto Helit [granddaughter of
        Death], and a cast of strange and unique characters.

        Now, thanks to a special arrangement [rumoured to involve Mr Dibbler
        of Ankh-Morpork, special consultancy on combat rules from Cohen the
        ctogenarian Barbarian, and a vampire lawyer], it's time for roleplay-
        ers to make their way to the far end of the probability curve and...

        THRILL to the distinctive sights, sounds, and smells [especially
        smells] of Ankh-Morpork, most dubious city in the multiverse!

        Sail the Circle Sea in ursuit of wealth, glory, pirate gold, or a
        suntan!

        INTERVENE in the on-going racial rivalry of trolls and dwarves [watch
        out for flying axes]!

        AVOID the attentions of Death, Fate, the Lady, and the Patrician!

        WONDER why they bought a second meat pie from Mr Dibbler!]

        RUN AWAY from an angry Swamp Dragon [two feet of mindless fury and
        hhigh-explosive digestion]!

        LEARN why Casanunda [second greatest lover on the Discworld] needs
        a stepladder.

        Complete with Discworld magic, a guide to the best inns, Things from
        the Dungeon Dimensions, Gaspode the Wonder Dog, and a Thousand Eleph-
        ants. [Well, maybe we lied about the elephants.]

      Three witches on a stormy heath, a king cruelly murdered, a usurper

        All is not well in the Ankh-Morpork Opera House. A ghost stalks
        the dark corridors, leaving strange letters for the management
        and ... killing people. Granny Weatherwax and Nanny Ogg, two
        Lancre witches, investigate, and are soon involved in all kinds
        of skulduggery, mayhem and ear-splittingly loud singing.

        Terry Pratchett's phenomenally popular Discworld novel, 'Maskerade',
        has been skilfully adapted by Stephen Briggs with suitably dramatic
        panache. Quirky and original characters, a labyrinthine plot and
        numerous witty one-liners make this a treat for Discworld fans and
        'uninitiated' theatregoers alike.

       All roads lead away from Ankh-Morpork, but sometimes people walk along

        The city celebrated in the bestselling Discworld series by Terry

        featuring a river you could skateboard across if it wasn't so

        Counterweight Continent, the Discworld is a place where Death

        For safety's sake, you need a guide.

        And here it is. Terry Pratchett and Stephen Briggs, respectively
        chronicler and cartographer of the Discworld, have produced the
        one and only definitive guide to the flat planet - its geography,
        its flora and fauna, its (many) religions, its architecture and
        customs, and its outstanding personalities.

        What is a Quantum Weather Butterfly? What does Death keep on his
        desk? Would you drink Bearhugger's Homeopathic Sipping Whiskey?
        How are the kings of Ankh-Morpork different from the kings of Ankh?


        Everything the Discworld traveller needs to know is contained in

        did construct a game known to the world as Discworld II. For
        forty days and forty nights did the heroes struggle with the

        and they cried out to Jaala, goddess of lateral thinking, parallel

        I get bees to sweat?" and "What do I do with the ironing board?"

        Discworld II Strategy Guide created.'
        _The Book of Kash (Prophet, 2nd Grade)._

        Discworld is a planet rife with danger and magical mayhem and, when
        Death disappears, a hero is desperately needed to bring him back.
        Unfortunately for everyone Rincewind, the hapless magician, lands the
        job ... and with a hero like that you need all the help you can get.

        Not only an artistic and breathtaking view of Lancre but also

        more, er, picturesque kingdoms.

        Granny Weatherwax, Nanny Ogg and Magrat Garlick live there.
        Lancre could hardly be somewhere ordinary, could it ?

        Magic glues the Discworld together and a lot of it ends up in
        Lancre, principal Kingdom of the Ramtop Mountains. Between
        Uberwald and Whale Bay, the Octarine Grass Country and the
        Widdershins Ocean lies the most exciting and dangerous terrain
        in all Discworld. The Ramtops supply Discworld with most of its
        witches and wizards. The leaves on the trees in the Ramtops move
        even when there is no breeze. Rocks go for a stroll in the even-
        ing. Even the land, at times, seems alive.

        The mapp may only be two-dimensional, but watch it very carefully
        and you might see it jostle about a bit.

        this calendar, with text from _The Discworld Companion_ (pub-
        lished in 1994/95), Terry Pratchett and Stephen Briggs provide
        a wealth of detail to guide the adventurous, yet discerning,
        Discworld traveller. With each page, a different aspect of Disc-
        world is explored -- its geography, inhabitants, leading citiz-
        ens, culture and history. In fact a whole calendar full of inval-
        uable facts, from A to Z, that Discworld afficionados cannot
        live without.

        </"gothic" style font>

        Everyone needs a place to relax after a long day, after all. So
        here is the place where the Grim Reaper can kick back and take
        the load off his scythe. Here's the golf course that's not so
        much crazy as insane, and the useless maze, and the dark gardens
        - all brought (incongruously) to life. And here, for the first
        time ever, you will find out the reason why Death can't under-
        stand rockeries, and what happens to garden gnomes.

        As Death rides Binky into the sunset (of other people's lives),
        you can at last see what he gets up to when he's not at work.

    this includes a new discworld story by terry, illustrative of
    some of the main points made by ian stewart & jack cohen; the
    individual chapters have titles, but none is given in the book
    for the story as a whole. the story occupies approximately one
    third of the book, its chapters alternating with those of the
    exposition.

blurb:
        In the fantasy universe of the phenomenally best-selling
        Discworld series, everything runs on magic and common sense.
        The world is flat and million-to-one chances happen nine
        times out of ten. Our world seems different - it runs on
        rules, often rather strange ones. Science is our way of
        finding out what those rules are. The appeal of Discworld
        is that it mostly makes sense, in a way that particle
        physics doesn't.

        _The Science of Discworld_ uses the magic of Discworld
        to illuminate the scientific rules that govern _our_
        world. When a wizardly experiment goes adrift, the wiz-
        ards of Unseen University find themselves with a pocket
        universe on their hands: Roundworld, where neither magic
        nor common sense seems to stand a chance against logic.

        Roundworld is, of course, our own universe. With us in-
        side it (eventually). Guided (if that's the word) by
        the wizards, we follow the story from the primal sing-
        ularity of the Big Bang to the Internet and beyond. We
        discover how puny and insignificant lives are against a
        cosmic backdrop of creation and disaster. Yet, paradox-
        ically, we see how the richness of a universe based on
        rules has led to a complex world and at least one spec-
        ies that tried to get a grip on what was going on...

9. Notes
   (on publishers, ISBNs (International Standard Book Numbers), formats...


----------------------------------------
9.1 Note on uk publishers, ISBNs (International Standard Book Numbers)

The ten-digit International Standard Book Number is used to uniquely
identify an edition of a book (though not, in uk usage, each printing).
it consists of a first section, identifying the language ("0-" or "1-"
indicates english); a second section identifying the publisher, some-
times, now, the imprint - where one publisher has been taken over by
another). it is the last part of the isbn that is peculiar to the part-
icular edition of a book from the publisher identified by these prefixes
(the final tenth figure is a check digit, that allows transmission and
typing errors to be caught by computer systems - or, in theory, by hand).

UK publishers of Terry's books, and of anthologies containing his stories.

0-006-, 0-022- HarperCollins_Publishers_ (formerly William Collins & Sons,
before that truly fine merkin citizen, Rupert Murdoch, then xxxxian, added
them to his swagbag): included are the imprints HarperCollins, Voyager, etc;
Collins, whose p/b imprint was Fontana, had by then bought Granada Publish-
ing, who had themselves absorbed Mayflower, Rupert Hart-Davis, McGibbon &
Kee, Arco, Paladin, and others - not least, Panther, which house went back
to the fifties, when Panther Books was set up as an imprint of the publish-
ers, Hamilton & Co., Staffs... Pan Books (see 0-330-) was formerly associat-
ed with Collins by partial ownership of Pan, but was operationally separate;

0-09- indicates a book published by the Arrow division of Random House UK,
formerly part of Century-Hutchinson, formerly Arrow Books, the p/b imprint
of the long-established uk publishers, Hutchinson & Co., who were for a
decade or so owned by London Weekend Television. imprints included Legend
(now sold to Little, Brown [Warner UK], who own the Orbit imprint, and are
re-badging as Orbit books, as they reprint - and changing ISBNs accordingly
[see 1-85723-] - as of mid-1997), Ebury Press & Vermilion, and Red Fox,
whose p/bs and h/cvrs also use this prefix: Random House has recently

0-385-, 0-552- below];

0-19- is the prefix identifying Oxford University Press;

0-285- indicates Souvenir Press;

0-330- identifies Pan Books, formerly owned by a consortium of William
Collins, Granada and Thomas Tilling/British Electric Traction; now an
imprint of Macmillan Publishers, who owned, but now are a sister company

this reorganisation): all are now parts of Holtzbrinck Publishing Holdings;
0-7522- is the prefix Macmillan use on their Boxtree imprint;

0-385- and 0-552- are, respectively, the Doubleday (h/cvr) and Corgi (p/b)
imprints of Transworld Publishers, now owned by the Bertelsmann group of
Germany (as are the merkin publishers Bantam Doubleday Dell, who have the
rights to distribute these editions in Canada, where these rights are clear
to so do [and as also, now, are both Random House and Random House U.K.
into which latter Transworld Publishers have been incorporated];

0-416- and 0-7497- indicate Methuen Childrens Books imprints of the Reed
(a.k.a. Octopus Publishing) group,  formerly  imprints  of  A.B.P. Ltd. -
their adult consumer books imprints have recently (1997) been bought by
Random House U.K., who may  vary  isbns  upon  later reissue (isbn prefix
0-09-); whose adult sf & fantasy list has, in turn, since been sold on to
Little, Brown (Time-Warner uk); the destination of their children's
list(s) is not yet known to this ppint. for certain, but is believed by
this ppint. to be as part of Egmont Children's Books.

0-450- indicates N.E.L. (New English Library), owned by Times-Mirror, inc.,
of Los Angeles when they published paperback  editions of two of Terry's
early novels, but now an imprint of Hodder Headline plc, having been bought
by Hodder & Stoughton, who in turn were taken over by Headline Publishers
and who have just been bought by W.H.Smith's;

0-55214- and 0-5521- both indicate Prima Publishing, a division of Prima
Communications, Inc. - the former, in the uk, and the latter, in merkia.

0-575- identifies the once-independent Victor Gollancz Ltd., and its VGSF
imprint: both these are now imprints of Cassell, which is in turn owned
by Orion (since late 1998), who are themselves owned by Hachette; and also
Vista, which Cassell launched as an imprint of Cassell using that same stem,
after they bought Gollancz from merkin publishers, Houghton Miflin (who were
the owners of Victor Gollancz Ltd. from their purchase of it upon the retire-
ment of Livia Gollancz); see also 0-75281- etc. (Orion); titles on the vista
list are being re-badged and -isbn-ed as orion millennium books as they are
reprinted.

used 1-85798- as its prefix. 70% owned by Hachette, the french publishing
conglomerate since mid 1998. see also 0-575- (Gollancz, Vista) prefix.

0-7531-, 1-85089-, and 1-85695- identify Isis Publishing Ltd: some of
these are large print h/cvr editions, and some are unabridged audio/bs.

1-85286- identifies Titan Books Ltd;

1-85487- is used by Robinson Publishing, on their Mammoth imprint (not to
be confused with the children's imprint of Methuen, as was], as well as

1-85723- indicates the Orbit imprint of Little, Brown & Co. Ltd, the uk
book-publishing arm of Time-Warner, inc; and

1-870824- identifies Beccon Publications.


----------------------------------------
9.2 Note on merkin publishers & ISBNs.

Merkin publishers of Terry's books, and of anthologies containing his stories.

0-06- HarperCollins_Publishers_, inc. (formerly Harper & Row, before that
truly fine merkin citizen, Rupert Murdoch, added them to his swagbag): in-
cluded are the imprints HarperCollins, HarperPrism, etc;

0-312- and 0-812- identify St. Martins Press (h/cvr & tp/b) and Tor Books
(mmp/b) respectively, Tor was formerly an independent publisher, though
the former prefix is now used on Tor h/cvr editions; i don't recall what
the St. Martins' isbns of Terry's early novels were, but they did not pro-
duce their own editions, iirc; rather, they re-dust-jacketed, and St. Mar-
tins-stickered, (run-ons of) Colin Smythe's editions for merkin distribn.
they were owned by Macmillan uk [not associated with Collier-Macmillan]
until february '98; all are now parts of Holtzbrinck Publishing Holdings;

0-425- and 0-441- are both identifiers of the Berkley Publishing Group,
until recently owned by Matsushita of Japan, were then sold off to the
canadadadian drinks giant, Seagram, and are currently being absorbed by
the merkin wing of Penguin, which has been renamed Putnam-Penguin, iirc.
0-441- indicates use of the Ace imprint, once an independent publisher;

0-451- indicates merkin imprints of New American Library (- originally
set up as merkin Penguin by Ian Ballantine and others; at the time they
started to publish merkin editions of Terry's books, they were owned by
Times-Mirror group of Los Angeles, and were the mother, or a sister, com-
pany of the british publisher, New English Library), Signet & Roc. They
are now imprints of Penguin, inc., or Putnam-Penguin (or whatever the
Great Penguin in darkest Harmondsworth has decided to call its merkin
publishing wing this week - possibly, "Dutton-Penguin"...). has also been
used by Penguin for Signet imprint in the uk - where, rather confusingly,
the Roc imprint borrowed from merkia uses the isbn prefix 0-140-. happily,
for booksellers, bibliographers and librarians ("ooook !"), no Signet/Roc
uk book contains aught by Terry  - leastways, not *yet*...

0-5521- and 0-55214- both indicate Prima Publishing, a division of Prima
Communications, Inc. - the former, in merkia, and the latter, in the uk;

0-7867- is the prefix for books published by Carroll and Graf;

0-894- identifies Workman Publishing, while

0-9630944- identifies Dreamhaven Books, and

----------------------------------------
9.4 Notes on book formats.

audio/b "Audiobook" - a reading of the novel, or an abbreviation of it,
        recorded on a number of compact cassettes. the Corgi audio/b range
        is of abridgements narrated by Tony ("Baldrick") Robinson, filling
        two cassettes per novel, running time circa three hours each; the
        Isis audio/b range is of the complete novels narrated by either
        Nigel ("Neil") Planer [or Celia Imries, on the first two witches
        novels] and occupying variously six, or eight, cassettes; running
        time varying widely between seven and a half, and eleven hours.
        Neither publishers' audio/b cassettes are differentiated in a way
        that blind or visually impaired (poorly-sighted) people can easily
        distinguish; this is of less consequence with the corgi audio/bs,
        as there are only two cassettes per novel to confuse; however, the
        isis audio/b packaging does allow strict order to be followed - IF
        the cassettes are ALWAYS returned to the appropriate position (and
        preferably, the earlier, "odd" sides uppermost).


h/cvr   "Hardcover" - the printed pages are published bound between boards
        (generally cloth-covered: hence h/cvr editions also referred to as
        "cloth"). the pages are properly sewn into signatures, and collec-
        ted by being sewn to cloth tapes, and sewn and glued onto a backing
        cloth, which is then glued to the inside edges of the cloth-covered
        boards. the endpapers are then glued in to cover the insides of the
        cloth-covered boards, and to the spine edges of the fly pages.

        n.b. the gollancz/cassell plc editions of The Witches Trilogy and
             The Death Trilogy are not so bound, being in effect p/bs which
             happen to have board covers...

        n.b. the gollancz/cassell miniature h/cvrs are not so bound, in that
             the cloth elements of a proper binding are completely omitted.

        [this note will need rewriting, should editions of Terry's books be
        published in quarter, half, three-quarter or full leather bindings.]


mmp/b   "Mass Market Paperback" - this term is descriptive of the distribut-
        ion system used to make these merkin p/bs available to the retailer;
        essentially, mmp/bs are treated as monthly magazines, their covers
        being stripped and returned for credit, if unsold on the arrival of
        the following month's titles. in _size_, the mmp/b is approximately
        the same as the uk "a format p/b"; but virtually all uk p/bs are in
        fact tp/bs. (cf. "p/b", "tp/b", "yp/b")


p/b     "Paperback" - the signatures are blocked together and then trimmed,
        with the resultant individual pages then being glued to the inside
        spine of a card cover (also known as "perfect" binding). although
        p/bs have been produced with their pages sewn in signatures, these
        in turn being glued either to the inside spine of the card cover (or
        first into paper or cloth tape) and this to the card cover, no such
        editions exist of Terry's books. [but see the feetnotes to "h/cvr".]
        the uk "a format p/b" is roughly the same size as the merkin mmp/b;
        the "b format p/b" is approximately an inch and a quarter taller and
        wider that the a format p/b. (see also "mmp/b", "tp/b" and "yp/b")
        n.b. p/bs listed above are a format p/b, unless otherwise indicated.


tp/b    "Trade Paperback" - this term is descriptive of the distribution
        system used to make these (nowadays mostly merkin, for fiction)
        p/bs available to the retailer; tp/bs are not sold via the news
        wholesalers, nor the retail outlets they supply (news-stand, chain-
        store and/ mom+pop store racks, etc.), but via the book trade.
        they are not "strippable for credit". the tp/b may be a p/b of any
        size, and so is not strictly of any particular format. (cf. "mmp/b",
        "p/b" & "yp/b")


yp/b    "Yuppieback" - this term is descriptive of the uk p/bs manufactured
        from trimmed signatures of the h/cvr printing: it is a recent uk
        innovation, normally published at the same time as, or three or six
        months after, the h/cvr. the term was derived from the somewhat res-
        tricted perceived custom for this edition: "those who can afford it
        (the space as well as the cost) buy the hardcover, and normal people
        like you and me buy the paperback: that only leaves yuppies, to buy
        the yuppiebacks." the yp/b is necessarily of the dimensions of the
        trimmed h/cvr edition signatures. (cf. "mmp/b", "p/b" and "tp/b")
