    About this audiobook

    The audiobook edition of the hilarious fantasy, co-written by Terry Pratchett, at age seventeen, and Terry Pratchett, at age forty-three

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

    Now, the Carpet is home to many different tribes and peoples, and a new story: 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 doesn’ t do something about it.

    Includes a PDF of Terry Pratchett’s drawings

    Terry Pratchett

    Terry Pratchett (1948–2015) is the acclaimed creator of the globally revered Discworld series. In all, he authored more than fifty bestselling books, which have sold more than one hundred million copies worldwide. His novels have been widely adapted for stage and screen, and he was the winner of multiple prizes, including the Carnegie Medal. He was awarded a knighthood by Queen Elizabeth II for his services to literature in 2009, although he always wryly maintained that his greatest service to literature was to avoid writing any.

      I was born in 1931. My first recollection has to be my mother’s roast rabbit; I can see it now in my mind’s eye, lying there in its bronze glory before being attacked by my siblings and me. At the back of the woodshed were the ferret hutches, which t
