Terry Pratchett with a plot summary for Unseen Academicals #fantasy #scifi

Here is some great news about Terry Pratchett’s next (as yet unpublished novel), UNSEEN ACADEMICALS.

It is the “soccer novel” with a “realistic” Romeo and Juliet story woven through.

Pratchett on the Romeo and Juliet story:

a bit weird. Why didn’t anyone apply a bit of rudimentary first aid?

You have to watch the video interview, the text interview is not about UNSEEN ACADEMICALS.
