Synopses & Reviews They're four inches tallin a human-sized world. Under the floorboards of the Store is a world of four-inch-tall nomes that humans never see. It is commonly known among these nomes that Arnold Bros. created the Store for them to live in, and he declared: "Everything Under One Roof." Therefore there can be no such thing as Outside. It just makes sense. That is, until the day a group of nomes arrives on a truck, claiming to be from Outside, talking about Day and Night and Snow and other crazy legends. And they soon uncover devastating news: The Store is about to be demolished. It's up to Masklin, one of the Outside nomes, to devise a daring escape plan that will forever change the nomes' vision of the world. . . . Synopsis: Pratchett gives his cast plenty of personality and fuels the plot with nonstop comedy. Synopsis: The hilarious trilogy by the international bestselling author of the Discworld series is now available as individual paperbacks. "A rollicking good story."--"Kirkus Reviews."
