Compiled from a collection by Adam Corres, with thanks to Colin Smythe for identifying missing pieces, often under Pratchett's pseudonym 'Marcus'.
Note: This bibliography does not include comics and play scripts which have been adapted by other writers from Terry Pratchett's original books.
Originally written for a school magazine, this was first commercially published in the paperback book/magazine Science Fantasy No.60, which also includes 'Same Time, Same Place' by Mervyn Peake and 'Mervyn Peake An Appreciation' by Michael Moorcock. Aged 13, Pratchett's contribution [pg 66-77] concerns Hell getting a marketing make-over and is perhaps the best short story Terry Pratchett has ever written. This classic has been re-published in The Unfriendly Future, edited by Tom Boardman Jr., London, New English Library (Four Square Books) in October 1965, pages 119-130.

The first book featuring a flat planet, which in later stories becomes a Discworld, except this one has been designed by an alien race - similar to Douglas Adams's Magrathean planet builders perhaps?[1978]. The work of these aliens seems to have somehow influenced Earth's own historical legends.

The first novel set on the Discworld. Clearly written in a much more Middle Ages 'Dungeons & Dragons'/'Sword & Sourcery' style than the later novels, i.e. still in the age of dragons, fantasy heroes and er, Japanese tourists. With all the Liannas and Liessas, Pratchett gets character names mixed up at one point. 'The Luggage', Discworld's most surreal character, arrives. Pratchett first thought of The Luggage when he saw an American woman & her be-castered, clattering, oversized tartan bag negotiating the streets of Bath. Already clearly a cult in the making. Later reprinted as a comic illustrated by Steven Ross.

After a tremendously productive 1989, Pratchett follows up with a stand-alone story set away from Discworld. This parody of the Revelations of St John of Patmos (and subsequent 'Omen' movies), and middle-ages witch hunts, was co written by comic/demonic writer Neil Gaiman, with whom Terry collaborated on 'Now We Are Sick'. Gaiman's novels 'Neverwhere' and 'American Gods' have since become cult classics. Good Omens will soon be a motion picture.

A City Watch novel in which an 'unofficial' assassin uses a gun for the first time on the Disc. The Assassins' Guild and the Watch try to catch the murderer and suppress the invention, which would give official assassins a bad name and probably put them out of business. A novel about detection, arms escalation and the inimitable Sam Vimes. Pratchett re-uses Evelyn Waugh's title from the first book of the highly subtle 'Sword of Honour' anti-war trilogy.

There was once an island, off Corsica I think, with a circumference of 3 miles. Britain, Spain and the Bourbon Court squabbled over it and threatened war until it strangely sank beneath the waves (being the tip of a volcanic deformation of the Earth's crust - i.e. the crust over a bubble of lava). I read recently it's just 12ft below the surface again, and rising, so people are preparing to fight over it again. Maybe they'll die. If you pop it with a flag-pole you probably deserve to! The point of the story is that people will fight over anything and it's about time they grew up. This is also the story of this book. Well observed.

This really is a class above all Pratchett's other childrens books. That's why it won the Carnegie medal for literature. This story (with hints of a Discworld setting) of speaking, thinking, evolving rats & cats is the best example so far of TP's adopted theory of 'tragic relief'. In other words, you need something really evil to defeat in order to make the readership feel relieved the good side overcame. The evil in this case is human (as in 101 Dalmations for example).

Cult Classic [pg 75-83] is an article coveying Terry's memories and feelings after exposure at an early age to Tolkien's Lord of the Rings. A collection of writings on Tolkien,edited by Karen Haber, dedicated to the memory of writer Poul Anderson whose short stories appeared together with Terry's in other compilations. Terry's spoken feelings on Tolkien have been toned down ('Tolkien is to fantasy what Mount Fuji is to Japanese prints', 'In Tolkien, why is black always evil and white always good and pure?' - There's never a bad elf or an orc who has a crisis on conscience. TP clearly finds the stereotype-breakers more interesting). The UK paperback is called Earthlight and was published by Simon & Schuster on 7th May 2002 ISBN 0-7432-3100-7.

I'd rate this Terry Pratchett's third best book. It's not that comic, but it does have a strong and heartfelt humanist message - er, and a hard boiled egg! Ankh-Morpork in the time of disintegration and revolution, when the morality and balance of Sir Sam Vimes is all that stands between civilisation and 'the nature of the beast'. 'If you can keep your head when all about you&' Buy it, read it and choose a side.

Co-written with scientists Ian Stewart & Jack Cohen, this is a less than one-third Pratchett written (discworld story) book and over two-thirds pop-science commentary on a variety of subjects which interrupt the flow every other chapter. The story is good, the science is interesting, but mixing them is a mistake. This sort of spin-off product gives TP another published title without having to write a whole book and it gives the two co-authors the chance to hang on to his coat tales and get a top ten best selling title. Cohen & Stewart are interesting enough, but at £17 this one is far from the best value for money to fans.

Another excellent book, for children or adults, with yet another adjustment to Pratchett's style to avoid the established Discworld formula. The theme borrows heavily from |
