B'úrscéalaí as Buckinghamshire i Sasana é Terence David John Pratchett OBE, (28 Aibreán 1948 –12 Márta 2015). Scríobh Pratchett an tsraith Discworld, saghas úrscéil idir coiméide, fantaisíocht agus ficsean eolaíochta. Tá ceithre mhilliún leabhar díolta ag Pratchett go dtí seo, i roinnt teangacha.

Saothar

Discworld

Tá níos mó ná tríocha leabhar sa tsraith seo. Scigaithris greannmhar atá ann. Níl na leabhair ar fad bainte le chéile, ach is é an Discworld (domhain dioscach atá suite ar dhroim cheithre eilifint, iad féin atá suite ar shliogán turtair) an suíomh. Is fantaisíocht é cinnte, ach is féidir a thuiscint cé atá i gceist sa dhomhan seo.
