The Discworld Mapp: Being the Onlie True and Mostlie Accurate Mappe of the Fantastyk and Magical Dyscworlde by Stephen Briggs, Terry Pratchett
5.0
The map is absolutely gorgeous, the art and style match the Discworld feel perfectly and I love all the artistic details and flourishes on the side that make it feel like a realworld ancient map. There Be Dragons indeed.
I enjoyed the text at the beginning, the short introduction from Sir Pratchett himself to a brief and yet illuminating description of the challenges of creating a work such as this by Steven Briggs and the short biographies of famous Discworld Explorers were hilarious and made me want to read books based just on them.
This is probably more for the serious Terry Pratchett fan and collector than for the more casual reader but I find I really love the maps and enjoy the depth they bring to the Discworld.
