Turtle Recall: The Discworld Companion... so far by Stephen Briggs, Terry Pratchett, Marc Simonetti

4.0

There's a pun right there in the title; I think that's sufficient reason to read this book.

The third installment, or rather, the third revised edition of the Discworld Companion. This one features all the entries from the previous two, plus more entries up to Raising Steam. The only novel it does not feature is The Shepherd's Crown, so this edition is pretty much the definitive companion.

It is alphabetised for your convenience and offers information on anything from main characters to sidemen only there to enable a joke; from large, bustling metropolises to small, insignificant villages only there to enable a joke.

Handy if you want a quick revision of Discworld shenanigans without fully re-reading the books or if you're compiling a lovely quiz for Christmas to make your family hate you even more so they don't visit next year.
