Rating: Summary: The death of Ankh-Morpork and the Discworld Review: Ankh-Morpork should never have been mapped! This town used to be a place where streets could appear and disappear, where streets weren't the same from day to day. I loved that town! Now it's just become an ordinary metropolis inhabited by slightly exotic beings, but aside from that a static nightmare forever locked to this misguided map. This map (and the map of the Discworld itself) are symptomatic of why Pratchett's newer books are not as lively as his first - say - 10: The Discworld, that once was organic and developing, is now a dead *thing* so orderly that it can even be captured by a 2-dimensional map!
Rating: Summary: I will definitely get this book Review: Based on all of Terry Pratchett's previous works, I say this book won't disappoint me.
Rating: Summary: Highly Enjoyable Review: This is a Map of the City of Ankh Morkpork. If you have't heard of Ankh Morpork you're missing out on one of the best fantasy series ever (Discworld)! The Streets of Ankh Morpork includes a big map, I hung it on my wall, and a small booklet describing the map, and the locations on the map. The map is very detailed, with all major (and many not-so-major) streets identified, important parts of the city labeled, like the Shades, and lots of interesting illistrations around the borders. After reading the Discworld books centering on Ankh-Morpork, I found this map gave new life to the famous city that all roads lead away from.
Rating: Summary: great, nicely labeled map Review: with the exeption of Steven Briggs trying to be funny at the beginig of the pamphlet that comes with the map, this product is exxelent. I got the last copy that ships in 24 hours but order it anyway it is worth the wait. I disagree with the last review, this map doesnt hinder Ankh Morpork it gives it a whole new dimension! The pamphet is great, the map is great, the illustaions are great, the cover is great, GET THIS MAP BEFORE ITS TOO LATE AND NONE ARE IN STOCK! I WAS LUCKY, MAYBE YOU WILL BE TOO!!!!
