The Last Hero: A Discworld Fable by Terry Pratchett

*** This book is now out of print and these are the last of the brand new copies available. Once stocks run out it may be difficult to pick up a new copy.A Discworld novel fully illustrated in lavish colour throughout its 160 pages, this is an essential part of any Discworld collection. It stars the legendary Cohen. He's been a legend in his own lifetime. He can remember when a hero didn't have to worry about fences and lawyers and civilisation, and when people didn't tell you off for killing dragons. But he can't always remember, these days, where he put his teeth...So now, with his ancient sword and his new walking stick and his old friends -- and they're very old friends -- Cohen the Barbarian is going on one final quest. He's going to climb the highest mountain in the Discworld and meet his gods. The last hero in the world is going to return what the first hero stole. With a vengeance. That'll mean the end of the world, if no one stops him in time.Reviews from Back Page of Book:'An awesome, yet comic, mission to save all Discworld' Daily Telegraph'A fable? Perhaps. Fabulous. Certainly.' The Times'Those who get to know Terry Pratchett's world soon understand why the likes of A. S. Byatt are fans. His characters are as eccentric yet richly human as any of Dickens's... but he's immensely funnier' Waterstone's Books Quarterly'A hilarious return to the fantasy-satirising spirit of the earlier Discworld novels.' DreamwatchBooktopia comment: Spectacular illustrations in this well put together large format paperback book.
