Nation (TPB) (Pratchett, Terry)
Prepare for the world to be turned upside down . . . For Mau, halfway between boy and man, it happens when a great wave destroys his entire village. For Daphne, it’s when the same wave crashes her ship into the island that was once Mau’s home. Everything they once had is now so far away, lost to distance and time. But when Daphne stops trying to shoot Mau (she did apologise for it), and instead uses a salvaged invitation card to invite him to tea, they discover a new home can be theirs. And then people start arriving on the island – some very good, some very bad. And it’s soon clear that Daphne and Mau must fight for their Nation. Then a discovery is made that will change the entire world forever . . .

Terry Pratchett
Engelsk forfatter som er kendt og elsket for sine "Discworld" bøger som der nu er kommet næsten 40 af. Det hele startede med bogen "The Colour of Magic" som udkom I 1983, om en klodset troldmand ved navn Rincewind. 3 år senere udkom fortsættelsen og siden har Pratchett ikke fået nogen nattesøvn fordi sultne fans sad og ventede på hans næste bog. Det stadigt voksende person galleri består blandt andet af heksen Granny Weatherwax, kufferten Luggage, døden DEATH, og vagten Vimes. Der er blevet lavet en del skuespil baseret på Pratchett's bøger og der er også blevet lavet tegnefilmsudgaver af to af dem.
