<p>In the four decades since his first book appeared in print, Terry Pratchett has become one of the world¿s best-selling and best-loved authors. Here for the first time are his short stories and other short form fiction collected into one volume. <i>A Blink of the Screen</i> charts the course of Pratchett¿s long writing career: from his schooldays through to his first writing job on the Bucks Free Press,; to the origins of his debut novel, <i>The Carpet People</i>; and on again to the dizzy mastery of the phenomenally successful Discworld series.<br><br>Here are characters both familiar and yet to be discovered; abandoned worlds and others still expanding; adventure, chickens, death, disco and, actually, some quite disturbing ideas about Christmas,all of it shot through with his inimitable brand of humour. <br><br>With an introduction by Booker Prize-winning author A.S. Byatt, illustrations by the late Josh Kirby and drawings by the author himself, this is a book to treasure.</p>
