Not only an artistic & breathtaking view of Lancre but also an interesting & informative guide to one of the Discworld's more, er, picturesque kingdoms.

Granny Weatherwax, Nanny Ogg & Magrat Garlick live there. Lancre could hardly be somwhere ordinary, could it?

Magic glues the Discworld together & a lot of it ends up in Lancre, principal Kingdom of the Ramtop Mountains. Between Uberwald & Whale Bay, the Octarine Grass Country & the Windersins Ocean lies the most exciting & dangerous terrain in all Discworld. The Ramtops supply Discworld with most of its witches & wizards. The leaves on the trees move even when there is no breeze. Rocks go for a stroll in the evening. Even the l&, at times, seems alive.

The mapp may be only two-dimensional, but watch it very carefully & you might just see it jostle about a bit.

' When I awoke the tongue of the tide was lapping at my feet & the sea had claimed my belongings. The sand on which I lay was so stiff there was no trace of my footprints across it. An observer viewing me from above might have imagined I had been washed upon the shore from a shipwreck. Another would perhaps have construed that I had been cast away by choice. If I had encountered my inert body I would have made the former assumption although the latter is much closer to the truth... '

With these words, the narrator of A Town by the Sea sets off towards a coastal town which lies some distance to the east of him. But he also embarks on a journey into his past. Along the way he encounters ghosts, he climbs a tall tower & is marooned in the clouds, he meets a ruffian & a dandy, he is attacked & tied to a cart, &, in the garden of a derelict house, he glimpses a scene from his childhood. Slowly, the mystery of how he arrived on the shoreline is solved, but is this the end of his journey, or just another stop along the way?
