The Amazing Maurice and his Educated Rodents Summary

The Amazing Maurice and his Educated Rodents: Film Tie-in by Terry Pratchett

*The book that inspired the big-hit new film starring Emilia Clarke, Himesh Patel, David Tennant, Hugh Laurie and Joe Sugg, coming 16th December. Read before you see! With amazing content, from scripts to film art*

Even wizards produce leftovers.

But a wizard's rubbish is laced with magic, and for the rats that forage this rubbish, the magic has changed them - they can speak and read, and have rather grand ambitions for a comfortable retirement.

Which is perfect for a con-cat like Maurice. He has his own magical talents, and wants to get rich quick. Together with the rats, and young Keith, the 'piper', they work the towns to create their very own plague of rats - then lure them away for cash.

But in the run-down town Bad Blintz, this little con goes wrong, and suddenly these educated rodents aren't playing to the piper's tune . . .

The Amazing Maurice and his Educated Rodents Reviews

Ethically challenging, beautifully orchestrated, philosophically opposed to the usual plot fixes of fantasy * The Guardian *
Excruciatingly funny, ferociously intelligent. * Kirkus *
It never ceases to amaze me the amount of... stuff one can find in a Terry Pratchett book * The Book Smugglers *
Amazing Maurice has one of the most satisfying and effective endings in the series! * Reading Bug *
Humour, humour and more humour, an utterly unpredictable plot, interesting rats - err, characters - and a profound denoument, this is Discworld at its best. * Speculation *
