‘We play and are played and the best we can hope for is to do it with style.’
Football has come to the ancient city of Ankh-Morpork. And now the wizards of Unseen University must win a football match without using magic . .. so they’re in the mood for trying everything else. The prospect of the Big Match draws in a street urchin with a talent for kicking a tin can; Glenda, the night chef who makes a mean pie; Juliet, the kitchen hand turned world’s greatest fashion model; and the mysterious Mr Nutt, who has something powerful, and dark, locked away inside him .
As the match approaches, four lives are entangled and changed for ever, because the thing about football – the important thing about football – is that it is not just about football.
Unseen Academicals is the seventh book in the Wizards series and thirty-seventh in the Discworld canon (but you can read the Discworld novels in any order!).
