Overview
Step into a hidden world of tiny heroes with The Bromeliad Trilogy, Terry Pratchett's beloved fantasy series for young readers. This brand-new paperback set brings together Truckers, Diggers, and Wings, following the nomes as they journey from a department store floor to the vastness of the Outside. Blending wit, warmth, and clever satire, the trilogy has delighted generations of children and adults. Perfect for gifting, classroom reading, or a home library, this set captures Pratchett's storytelling at its funniest and most inventive.
About the Books
Truckers introduces the nomes, four-inch-tall people who have lived under the floorboards of Arnold Bros (est 1905) department store for generations, never quite believing in the Outside. When Outsiders arrive carrying the mysterious Thing and warn that the store is closing forever, Masklin and his friends must lead thousands of nomes into the unknown, discovering courage and cooperation they never knew they had.
Diggers finds the nomes settling into an abandoned quarry, believing they have finally found safety. Their fragile new world is threatened when humans arrive to reopen the site, forcing the nomes to defend their home using wit, teamwork, and the legendary monster Jekub as an unlikely secret weapon.
Wings closes the trilogy as the nomes aim even higher. Convinced their true home lies among the stars, Masklin must find a way to reach a communications satellite launch, hitching an audacious ride to fulfil their destiny. Filled with peril and humour, Wings brings the trilogy to a satisfying close.
Together, these books trace a miniature-scale odyssey about belonging, resilience, and facing a world far bigger than yourself, with Pratchett's trademark wit and satire shining throughout.
