Подарочное издание романа «Цвет волшебства» Терри Пратчетта • Где-то на границе между выдумкой и реальностью находится Плоский Мир. Параллельный мир, который может звучать и пахнуть как наш, но выглядит совершенно по-другому. И существует по иным законам.

И если учесть, что за его безопасность в окружении воров, наёмников и Смерти отвечает самый некомпетентный волшебник на свете, некоторые логические выводы напрашиваются сами собой
