A lie can run round the world before the truth has got its boots on’
William de Worde is the accidental editor of the Discworld’s first newspaper.
Now he must cope with the traditional perils of a journalist’s life - people who want him dead, a recovering vampire with a suicidal fascination for flash photography, some more people who want him dead in a different way and, worst of all, the man who keeps begging him to publish pictures of his humorously shaped potatoes.
William just wants to get at THE TRUTH. Unfortunately, everyone else wants to get at William. And it’s only the third edition…
IN particular some of the characters have somewhat altered in their behaviours and outlook....
Una magnífica obra que habla sobre el periodismo, sobre qué es (o debería) ser el periodismo de verdad, como cuarto poder fiscalizador, sobre las fake news y sobre los poderosos en la sombra.
Todo esto con la sátira, gracia y saber hacer de Pratchett.
