A funny fantasy book, ideal for ages seven and up, from the master storyteller Terry Pratchett - the first book he ever wrote! In the beginning, there was nothing but an endless flat surface. Then came the Carpet. Afterward came the dust, which fell upon the Carpet. From the dust, the Carpet wove us all. From the dust, we, the Carpet people, came to be. In the fringes of a carpet, there are tribes and people, families, and brothers. This is the story of two of those brothers. This is the story of the evil Fray, which sweeps with a destructive path across the Carpet. And the story of an adventure that will be the most epic of all… “Incredibly funny… irresistibly readable” - The Times
