Critic Reviews

“This isn't just a great Discworld book, it's extraordinary . . . A magnificent sign-off.”

The Shepherd's Crown is a sometimes sad, often funny and eminently suitable testament to the life and career of Terry Pratchett. -- David Barnett Independent Terry Pratchett was never so witty, direct and generous as in this, his final Discworld novel. -- Amanda Craig Guardian A joyful sign-off from a master of fantasy fiction . . . High-octane literary enjoyment. -- Nicholas Tucker Independent From the shadow of dementia, a brilliant novel shines: Terry Pratchett's last book is a funny, fearless farewell . . . This is a book worth reading twice in quick succession. -- Christopher Stevens Daily Mail -- Kat Brown Daily Telegraph
