7 November 2013 | Publication | Received with a mixture of critical warmth and awareness of the circumstances of its composition, as Pratchett's Alzheimer's was by this point significantly affecting his writing process. Some critics felt it lacked the structural tightness of the earlier Moist novels, while others valued it as a statement about progress and the possibility of a better world. It was Pratchett's penultimate Discworld novel and was received in part as a valedictory work. |
2014 | Award Nominated | Locus Award Fantasy novel category, 7th place |
2015 | Award Nominated | Prometheus Award |
