(4) YA Originally published serially in the 1960s and 70s, the short stories in this posthumous collection introduce readers to a variety of absurd, frequently magical settings and situations, including the "real Wild West" (Wales). Pratchett fans will enjoy the quick wit, nonstop wordplay, and imaginative setups, but the stories lack the underlying spirit that characterized the author's acclaimed later, longer works.
