Synopsis

The wizards of Discworld discover that Earth's history has been altered in a way that will prevent humanity from developing space travel before an extinction event, and must ensure Charles Darwin writes The Origin of Species rather than a creationist alternative, battling the Auditors of Reality along the way while the book's nonfiction sections explore evolution and the history of scientific ideas.

Where it sits

  • Universe: Discworld
  • Series: not part of a registered series (standalone work within its universe)
  • Author: Terry Pratchett

Notes

  • Same hybrid format.

Neighbouring works

Publication order and internal chronology are tracked as two separate orderings and are never conflated: a book's place in one says nothing about its place in the other.
