"Unseen University are proud to present the most comprehensive map and guide to the Disc yet produced. In this noble endeavour, drawing upon the hard won knowledge of many great and, inevitably, late explorers, one may locate on a detailed plan of our world such fabled realms as the Condiment Isles, trace the course of the River Kneck as it deposits silt and border disputes in equal abundance on the lands either side, and contemplate the vast deserts of Klatch and Howondaland - a salutary lesson in the perils of allowing ones goats to graze unchecked. Each nation, its people, customs, terrain and economic pursuits, is described in due turn, transporting the reader from the fat mines of Uberwald and the magic-carpet market of Al Khali to the highest monastaries of the Ramtops, and the blood-and cocoa-stained temples of the Tezuman Empire. This instructive volume is essential reading for all who wish to learn more about the lands atop the turtle."--back cover.
