And it includes a huge map! with insets describing things like thaumaturgical fields... The presentation is wonderful: a hardcover book in a jacket that includes an elastic to hold it together, and which keeps the separate HUGE map in place so it does not slip out. It's a delight to read, too, whether straight through or at random. All of the separate areas have their own small maps in the text, too, which is fun. (I love maps!) I think all Discworld fans would love this, and I recommend it highly! Beautiful and useful! nessuna recensione | aggiungi una recensione
"Unseen University are proud to present the most comprehensive map and guide to the Disc yet produced.In this noble endeavour, drawing upon the hard won knowledge of many great and, inevitably, late explorers, one may locate on a detailed plan of our world such fabled realms as the Condiment Isles, trace the course of the River Kneck as it deposits silt and border disputes in equal abundance on the lands either side, and contemplate the vast deserts of Klatch and Howondaland - a salutary lesson in the perils of allowing ones goats to graze unchecked. This stunning work brings to life the lands and locations of the Discworld stories in a way never seen before. Accompanied by lavish full-colour illustrations and a detailed world map, this is a must-have for any Discworld fan." Non sono state trovate descrizioni di biblioteche |

Likafullt har i och med The compleat Discworld atlas det åstadkommits inte bara en vacker karta på tjockt papper, utan även en beskrivning av de olika länder och regioner som man kan råka hamna i, från Enlightenment Country, i närheten av världens mitt, till Krull, som inte bara ligger brevid randen, utan gör allt det kan för att luta sig utanför och titta på elefanterna och store A'Tuin, från det kalla Nothingfjord till heta Klatch, från urbana (nåja) Ankh-Morpork till lantliga Lancre.
Det är naturligtvis inte många som fått uppleva alla dessa länder (möjligen undantaget Rensvind, som troligen sprungit genom de flesta vid någon tidpunkt), inte ens som läsare. Ibland får man en trevlig påminnelse om någon plats, ibland en smålustig redogörelse för ett ställe man ännu väntar på att besöka. Som de flesta kringprodukter är det rätt trevligt för den redan invigde, men obegripligt för alla andra. Kul att titta igenom, många fina illustrationer, men inget revolutionerande. ( )
