In “The Truth,” Terry Pratchett delivers a wickedly funny satire of journalism and politics in his beloved Discworld. When William de Worde accidentally invents the newspaper, he unleashes a whirlwind of change in Ankh-Morpork. Suddenly, everyone wants their story told—or buried. With a cast of colorful characters and Pratchett’s signature wit, this novel explores the power of words and the chaos of truth in a world balanced on the edge of absurdity.
Truth! Freedom! Justice! And a hard-boiled egg!
