A special 50th anniversary edition of the first book Sir Terry Pratchett ever wrote!

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

That's the old story everyone knows and loves (even if they don't really believe it). But now the Carpet is home to many different tribes and peoples and there's a new story in the making.

The story of Fray, sweeping a trail of destruction across the Carpet, and two brothers, who set out on an adventure to end all adventures.

A hilarious fantasy, perfect for ages seven an up, written by master storyteller Terry Pratchett.

Industry Reviews

I feel it's a new dimension in imagination and the prose is beautiful. It is exciting and adventurous.
The Irish Times

For readers who are attracted to epic but not quite ready for the weightiness of Tolkien, this is a perfect entree; for those who have loved or will love Pratchett, it's simply a must read.
Bulletin of the Center for Children's Books

Only a writer with a masterstroke of imagination could place an entire empire of goodies and baddies within the fronds of a carpet
Daily Mail

The perfect starting place for young readers . . . seasoned Pratchett fans will just revel in his wit, his subversion of tropes and his sense of humanity.
Kirkus

A unique piece of high fantasy . . . Now very witty and politically aware in its revised version with the new ending
