A Slip of the Keyboard
If you've read one of Terry Pratchett's amazingly funny Discworld novels, filled with insight about the flailing and failings of every little nook and cranny of civilization, you probably would bet that he would make a dynamite and devastating essay writer. Well, it's time to collect your winnings, because A SLIP OF THE KEYBOARD is an astounding collection of his writing. From sci-fi conventions to incurable diseases, Sir Terry always has a unique insight, and he never fails to find a way to share it with a smile.
