And there's something shady going on involving an uncommonly psychotic member of the Assassins' Guild and certain representatives of Ankh-Morpork's rather extensive criminal element. Yet here it is, Hogswatchnight, that most joyous and acquisitive of times, and the jolly, old, red-suited gift-giver has vanished without a trace. Who would want to harm Discworld's most beloved icon? Very few things are held sacred in this twisted, corrupt, heartless-and oddly familiar-universe, but the Hogfather is one of them. It’s up to Death to take up the reigns-otherwise the sun won’t shine tomorrow.

But when the fat man goes missing, someone has to sit in. It’s the most wonderful time of the year, Hogswatchnight, when the Hogfather himself dons his red suit and climbs in his sleigh pulled by-of course-eight hogs, to shower gifts across Discworld. The twentieth novel in the hilarious and irreverent Discworld series from New York Times bestselling author Sir Terry Pratchett. 'Pratchett has now moved beyond the limits of humorous fantasy, and should be recognized as one of the more significant contemporary English-language satirists.' - Publishers Weekly Snuff: A Novel of Discworld (Mass Market): Unseen Academicals: A Novel of Discworld (Mass Market): Making Money: A Novel of Discworld (Mass Market): Thud!: A Novel of Discworld (Mass Market): Going Postal: A Novel of Discworld (Mass Market): Monstrous Regiment: A Novel of Discworld (Mass Market): Night Watch: A Novel of Discworld (Mass Market): The Amazing Maurice and His Educated Rodents Lib/E (Discworld #28) (Compact Disc): The Last Hero: A Discworld Fable (Paperback): Thief of Time: A Novel of Discworld (Mass Market): The Truth: A Novel of Discworld (Mass Market): The Fifth Elephant: A Novel of Discworld (Mass Market): The Last Continent: A Novel of Discworld (Mass Market):Ĭarpe Jugulum: A Novel of Discworld (Mass Market): Jingo: A Novel of Discworld (Mass Market): Maskerade: A Novel of Discworld (Mass Market): Interesting Times: A Novel of Discworld (Mass Market): Soul Music: A Novel of Discworld (Mass Market):įeet of Clay: A Novel of Discworld (Mass Market): Men at Arms: A Novel of Discworld (Mass Market): Lords and Ladies: A Novel of Discworld (Mass Market): Small Gods: A Novel of Discworld (Mass Market): Witches Abroad: A Novel of Discworld (Mass Market): Reaper Man: A Novel of Discworld (Mass Market): Moving Pictures: A Novel of Discworld (Mass Market): Guards!
