Moving pictures: a novel of discworld - terry pratchett

Discworlds pesky alchemists are up to their old tricks again.

This time, theyve discovered how to get gold from silver--the silver screen that is.

Hearing the siren call of Holy Wood is one Victor Tugelbend, a would-be wizard turned extra.

He cant sing, he cant dance, but he can handle a sword (sort of), and now he wants to be a star.

So does Theda Withel, an ambitious ing nue from a little town youve probably never heard of.

But the click of moving pictures isnt just stirring up dreams inside Discworld.

Holy Woods magic is drifting out into the boundaries of the universes, where raw realities, the could-have-beens, the might-bes, the never-weres, and the wild ideas are beginning to ferment into a really stinky brew.

Its up to Victor and Gaspode the Wonder Dog to rein in the chaos and bring order back to a starstruck Discworld.

And theyre definitely not ready for their close-up.
