It\'s time for the rats to tell their side of the Pied Piper story.
When one of the world\'s most acclaimed fantasy writers turns a classic fairy tale on its head, no one will ever look at the Pied Piper--or rats--the same way again.
Set in Terry Pratchett\'s beloved Discworld, this masterfully crafted, gripping read is both compelling and funny.
For this is a town where food is scarce and rats are hated, where cellars are lined with deadly traps, and where a terrifying evil lurks beneath the hunger-stricken streets....
But when Maurice and his cohorts decide to con the town of Bad Blinitz, it will take more than fast talking to survive the danger that awaits.
This streetwise alley cat knows the value of cold, hard cash and can talk his way into and out of anything.
