Terry Pratchett Talks Discworld-Inspired TV Show, New Book Dodger
NEW YORK — An upcoming television show based on Terry Pratchett’s Discworld novels will focus on crime-fighting character Samuel Vimes, said the writer Friday at New York Comic Con.
Vimes is the no-nonsense commander of the City Watch, a burgeoning police force in the fantasy Discworld city of Ankh-Morpork. His exploits will form the basis of the show, to be called The Watch.
