A Short Story from Dragons at Crumbling Castle
Ratings5
Average rating3.8
Captain the Honourable Sir Herbert Stephen Ernest Boring-Tristram-Boring (known to his friends as Bill) is very rich but very bored. When famous explorer Alfred Tence* shows up at his front door, life gets considerably more exciting. Before long, he’s speeding off in a taxi to the mountains of Chilistan in search of the hairiest, most mysterious monster ever known – an ABOMINABLE SNOWMAN! A fantastically funny short story from the collection Dragons at Crumbling Castle. [*Yes, that Alfred Tence – the same man who punted from Brighton to Bombay in the bath. It’s true.]

It felt like it was trying to be silly too much, but turns Pratchett wrote this short story when he was 17 lol. So not judging his later work from this sample.
