This time, however, it's Borogravia that's getting its long overdue comeuppance, which has left the country drained of young men.

"These rediscovered tales were written by Terry Pratchett under a pseudonym for British newspapers during the 1970s and 1980s. The stories have never been attributed to him until now, and might never have been found, were it not for the efforts of a few dedicated fans.
