Description of book
It’s a rat-eat-rat world . . .
Every town on Discworld knows the stories about rats and pipers, and Maurice – a streetwise tomcat with his very own plague of rats – has the perfect insider-dealing scam going. Until he runs across someone playing a different tune. Now he and his rats must learn a new concept: evil. And it’s time for everyone to stop relying on stories and to start using independent thought . . .
Reviews
- The humour is sophisticated and demands that the reader keep up to speed. A passion for language, wordplay and puns bursts from the pages - Daily Telegraph
- An astonishing novel . . . I marvelled at the ferociousness of the humour, and the willingness to go into dark places . . . Were Terry not demonstrably a master craftsman already, The Amazing Maurice might be considered his masterpiece - Financial Times
