Terry Pratchett is an internationally renowned writer, the author of the phenomenal Discworld series, the Good Omens novel and a number of other books. Before his death, Terry was writing his memoirs: the story of a six-year-old boy whose teacher predicted a lack of success, but who decided to prove otherwise. As a result, Pratchett lived a life full of amazing achievements: he became one of the most popular and beloved writers in Great Britain, received the prestigious Carnegie Medal and was awarded a knighthood for literary merit. The memoirs, which Terry, unfortunately, was unable to finish, were finished by Rob Wilkins, his assistant, friend, and now the manager of Pratchett's literary estate along with his daughter Rihanna. Relying on his own memory, the recollections of the writer's family, friends and colleagues, Rob reveals a complete picture of Terry's life - from childhood to the end of his amazing writing career, and also tells how he met the news of Alzheimer's disease and began a desperate fight against it. Here is the only official biography of one of the greatest authors of our time - a deeply moving and personal portrait of an amazing life, captured with unrivaled insight and filled with funny anecdotes.
