The stories Terry left us with are loved by millions and yet we all grieve for the tales untold, the presence of the best storyteller of a generation and the quirky, grumpy, brilliant man behind it all! The first third of the book you can feel and hear Terry’s own voice, the lively sense of humour, the telling eye for detail. Hugely recommended and would make a lovely Christmas gift for a Pratchett fan.

It’s filled with interesting details and information. It wasn't to do with the company it was to do with the delivery of my item. This also deals openly and honestly with his dementia diagnosis and how it affected him and those around him.

Terry was working on an autobiography which reached until 1979, unfortunately his Alzheimer’s got worse and it stopped. A deeply personal biography that is heartwarming, funny and heartbreaking. I mark periods of my life by the publishing of his books and it was fascinating to see his process and the back catalogue of work speaks for itself.
This is an incredible biography, it shows the man as he was, brilliant, grumpy, decent, angry, it is so human and deeply moving. The book it's self is brilliant but the bottom of the book has a mark across the bottom, wasn't happy as this is a Christmas present.
It’s heartbreaking and deeply moving, I burst into tears several times. The next third of the book takes us up to 2000. Give Binky my love Sir Terry, you are missed!
