Authored by Terry Pratchett, the Discworld series is a long-running collection of satirical fantasy novels set on a flat, disc-shaped planet.
This unique world is carried through space on the backs of four giant elephants, which in turn stand on the shell of an enormous turtle, Great A'Tuin. While containing all the familiar elements of fantasy, like wizards, trolls, and dragons, the Discworld uses this magical backdrop to provide witty and often poignant social commentary on a wide range of real-world issues
