His novels have been widely adapted for stage and screen, and he was the winner of multiple prizes, including the Carnegie Medal.

"Pratchett's one-liners, the comic dialogue of the Feegles, the satire about teenagers and the credulousness of the ordinary folk make for a characteristically entertaining mix." -- Nicolette Jones Sunday Times "Terry Pratchett kicks the bejaysus out of JK Rowling...If you haven't read Pratchett before then give yourself a treat and buy this book." In Dublin "Exhuberant energy and humour..." Children's Bookseller "...charming in every sense of the word. Beautifully written and at times highly comic, it is an extraordinary achievement..." Books for Keeps "Wintersmith is not written and does not read as a "young adult" book, and succeeds all the more for that. Very enjoyable." Dreamwatch
