Saothar

Discworld

Tá níos mó ná tríocha leabhar sa tsraith seo. Scigaithris greannmhar atá ann. Níl na leabhair ar fad bainte le chéile, ach is é an Discworld (domhain dioscach atá suite ar dhroim cheithre eilifint, iad féin atá suite ar shliogán turtair) an suíomh. Is fantaisíocht é cinnte, ach is féidir a thuiscint cé atá i gceist sa dhomhan seo.
