A storm. Rain-lashed city streets. A flash of lightning. A scruffy lad sees a girl leap desperately from a horse-drawn carriage, in a vain attempt to escape her captors. Can the lad stand by and let her be caught again? Of course not, because he's... Dodger!

About the Author:
Dodger is a tosher—a sewer scavenger living in the squalor of Victorian London. Everyone who is nobody knows him. Anybody who is anybody doesn't. He used to know his own future; it involved a lot of brick-lined tunnels and plenty of filth. But when Dodger rescues a young girl from a beating, meets Charles Dickens, and encounters Sweeney Todd, things start to get really messy.
Now everyone who is anyone wants to get their hands on Dodger. . . .
TERRY PRATCHETT created the Discworld series in 1983, when The Colour of Magic was published. I Shall Wear Midnight will be the 38th Discworld novel. His books have been translated into 37 languages and have sold over 65 million units worldwide. Terry Pratchett was knighted for services to literature in 2009. His tireless campaigns to raise awareness of Alzheimer's and assisted dying have further raised the public profile of this much-loved writer.
