A series of fantasy/satirical books by author Terry Pratchett, taking place on a disc shaped worls carried
on the back of the star turtle, Great A'tuin. Discworld has parallels galore with the "
real world" while still being entirely
fantastical, and as a result, are really fine works of satire.
For several years now, talks have been on for a Discworld movie, and animated adaptations have already been done of the Discworld books "Wyrd Sisters" and "Soul Music" by Cosgrove Hall (I believe).
