A war of words and a battle for the truth in Terry Pratchett's
bestselling Discworld(R) series
The denizens of Ankh-Morpork fancy they've seen just about everything.
But then comes the Ankh-Morpork Times, struggling scribe William de
Worde's upper-crust newsletter turned Discworld's first paper of record.
An ethical journalist, de Worde has a proclivity for investigating
stories--a nasty habit that soon creates powerful enemies eager to stop
his presses. And what better way than to start the Inquirer, a
titillating (well, what else would it be?) tabloid that conveniently
interchanges what's real for what sells.
But de Worde's got an inside line on the hot story concerning
Ankh-Morpork's leading patrician, Lord Vetinari. The facts say Vetinari
is guilty. But as William de Worde learns, facts don't always tell the
whole story. There's that pesky little thing called . . . the truth.
