Not only an artistic and breathtaking view of Lancre but also
an interesting and informative guide to one of the Discworld's
more, er, picturesque kingdoms.
Granny Weatherwax, Nanny Ogg and Magrat Garlick live there.
Lancre could hardly be somewhere ordinary, could it ?
Magic glues the Discworld together and a lot of it ends up in
Lancre, principal Kingdom of the Ramtop Mountains. Between
Uberwald and Whale Bay, the Octarine Grass Country and the
Widdershins Ocean lies the most exciting and dangerous terrain
in all Discworld. The Ramtops supply Discworld with most of its
witches and wizards. The leaves on the trees in the Ramtops move
