"Pratchett's witty reach is even longer than usual here, from Pulp Fiction to His Girl Friday. Readers who've never visited Discworld before may find themselves laughing out loud." -- Publishers Weekly A war of words and a battle for the truth in Terry Pratchett's bestselling Discworld series The denizens of Ankh-Morpork fancy they've seen just about everything. But then comes the Ankh-Morpork Times , struggling scribe William de Worde's upper-crust newsletter turned Discworld's first paper of record. An ethical journalist, de Worde has a proclivity for investigating stories--a nasty habit that soon creates powerful enemies eager to stop his presses. And what better way than to start the Inquirer , a titillating (well, what else would it be?) tabloid that conveniently interchanges what's real for what sells. But de Worde's got an inside line on the hot story concerning Ankh-Morpork's leading patrician, Lord Vetinari. The facts say Vetinari is guilty. But as William de Worde learns, facts don't always tell the whole story. There's that pesky little thing called . . . the truth . The Discworld novels can be read in any order.

"The Truth" is one of my very favorite Discworld novels, but this audiobook was a tremendous disappointment. The editors who prepared the abridgement removed all of Sir T's most amusing satirical passages and opted for the baldest straight-line narrative. If you want to appreciate the wit and humor of this work in its fullness, do NOT buy this abridgement!
