Dimensions
114 x 177 x 24mm
The planet Earth has picked up a parasite life form - elves. They get everywhere. And they like humans to be superstitious, fearful and frightened of thunder. They're after our future and must be stopped . . . but by who?
Enter the wizards of the Unseen University who, in the best-selling 'Science Of Discworld', unwittingly created Earth and our own universe. At the time they quite failed to notice humanity. (Well, we've only been around for a million years, so we're easily overlooked . . .) But now, at last, they've found us.
'The Globe' is a unique book, weaving together a fast-paced Discworld novelette with cutting-edge scientific commentary on the evolution and development of the human mind, culture, language, art and science. The result - as the wizards grapple with the nature of Good and Evil, and history is rewritten several times over - is a fascinating and brilliant original view of the world we live in.
