Commander Sam Vimes of the Ankh-Morpork City Watch had it all. But now he's back in his own rough, tough past without even the clothes he was standing up in when the lightning struck...Living in the past is hard. Dying in the past is incredibly easy. But he must survive, because he has a job to do. He must track down a murderer, teach his younger…

Suddenly, condemned arch-swindler Moist von Lipwig found himself with a noose around his neck and dropping through a trapdoor into ... a government job? By all rights, Moist should be meeting his maker rather than being offered a position as Postmaster by Lord Vetinari, supreme ruler of Ankh-Morpork. Getting the moribund Postal Service up and running again, however, may prove an impossible task, what with literally mountains of decades-old undelivered mail clogging every nook and cranny of the broken-down post office. Worse still, Moist could swear the mail is talking to him. Worst of all, it means taking on the gargantuan, greedy Grand Trunk clacks communication monopoly and its bloodthirsty piratical headman. But if the bold and undoable are what's called for, Moist's the man for the job -- to move the mail, continue breathing, get the girl, and specially deliver that invaluable commodity that every being, human or otherwise, requires: hope.

Tiffany Aching is a trainee witch — now working for the seriously scary Miss Treason. But when Tiffany witnesses the Dark Dance — the crossover from summer to winter — she does what no one has ever done before and leaps into the dance. Into the oldest story there ever is. And draws the attention of the wintersmith himself. As Tiffany-shaped snowflakes hammer down on the land, can Tiffany deal with the consequences of her actions? Even with the help of Granny Weatherwax and the Nac Mac Feegle — the fightin’, thievin’ pictsies who are prepared to lay down their lives for their “big wee hag.” Wintersmith is the third title in an exuberant series crackling with energy and humour. It follows The Wee Free Men.

The twelfth Discworld novel — It seemed an easy job . . . After all, how difficult could it be to make sure that a servant girl doesn’t marry a prince? But for the witches Granny Weatherwax, Nanny Ogg and Magrat Garlick, travelling to the distant city of Genua, things are never that simple. Servant girls have to marry the prince. That’s what life is all about. You can’t fight a Happy Ending. At least — up until now.

With his beloved Watch crumbling around him and war-drums sounding, Commander Sam Vimes must unravel every clue, outwit every assassin and brave any darkness to find the solution. And darkness is following him. At six o'clock every day, without fail, with no excuses, he must go home to read "Where's My Cow?" to his little boy.

Z plochozemského mora sa vynoril veterník a odrazu je jasné, odkiaľ vietor fúka. Na hladinu sa vyplavila nová pevnina a s ňou aj staré spory. Proti sebe pochodujú dve armády a hlavný veliteľ Samuel Mrak z ankh-morporskej mestskej stráže má len pár hodín na to, aby vyriešil taký veľký zločin,že naň ani neexistuje zákon. Ten zločin sa volá „vojna“.Mrak si musí poradiť so zákernými darebákmi, ktorí mu idú po krku... a to hovoríme len o jeho spojencoch! Nepriateľ by mohol byť ešte horší. A asi nebude náhoda, že vreckový dezorganizér Mrakovi do dnešného zoznamu povinností pohotovo zaradil slovíčko „zomrieť“. To si však Mrak rozhodne nemôže dovoliť. Na bojisko sa totiž hrnie najgeniálnejší vynálezca i najprefíkanejší politik všetkých čias s malou zásielkou, ktorá isto-iste nastolí mier...

Susan had never hung up a stocking . She'd never put a tooth under her pillow in the serious expectation that a dentally inclined fairy would turn up. It wasn't that her parents didn't believe in such things. They didn't need to believe in them. They know they existed. They just wished they didn't. There are those who believe and those who don't. Through the ages, superstition has had its uses. Nowhere more so than in the Discworld where it's helped to maintain the status quo. Anything that undermines superstition has to be viewed with some caution. There may be consequences, particularly on the last night of the year when the time is turning. When those consequences turn out to be the end of the world, you need to be prepared. You might even want more standing between you and oblivion than a mere slip of a girl - even if she has looked Death in the face on numerous occasions...

Kľuky obrázkových skriniek sa krútia, maličkí démoni maľujú ako o život a alchymisti sa radujú, pretože objavili mágiu, aká sa na Plochozemi dosiaľ nevyskytla – mágiu strieborného plátna. Ale moment! Naozaj sa tu tá mágia ešte nikdy neobjavila? Viktor Tugelbend, takmer čarodejník, ktorý sa z nedostatku iných príležitostí stal hviezdou novorodeného zábavného priemyslu, počuje tajomné volenie. Ešte tajomnejšie hlasy doháňajú Thedu „Ginger“ Vifinovú, jeho hereckú partnerku bujných proporcií, k nočným výletom a vyhrabávaniu cthinematografickej histórie. Holytrúd sníva svoje sny a o mágii strieborného plátna vie svoje... Ibaže na jej hrozivé dôsledky už zabudol. Ak mu ich rýchlo niekto nepripomenie, realita tentoraz padne pod náporom nereality a neúprosného biznisu holytrúdskeho...
