Discover the gloriously inventive and funny fantasy novel from bestselling author Terry Pratchett, the first book in the Industrial Revolution series, part of the Discworld novels.
'One of the best expressions of his unstoppable flow of comic invention' The Times
'If you only read one Terry Pratchett book, read this one. You WILL be hooked' 5-star reader review
'Always push your luck because no one else would push it for you.'
Imprisoned in Ankh-Morpork, con artist Moist von Lipwig is offered a choice: to be executed or to accept a job as the city's Postmaster General.
It's a tough decision, but he's already survived one hanging and isn't in the mood to try it again.
The Post Office is down on its luck: beset by mountains of undelivered mail, eccentric employees, and a dangerous secret order. To save his skin, Moist will need to restore the postal service to its former glory, with the help of tough talking activist Adora Belle Dearheart. Who happens to be very attractive, in an 'entire womanful of anger' kind of way.
But there's new technology to compete against and an evil chairman who will stop at nothing to delay Ankh-Morpork's post for good . . .
Going Postal is the first book in the Industrial Revolution series, but you can read the Discworld novels in any order.
