Evidence from documents: The Carpet People: 'The Carpet People''''' is a comic fantasy novel by British writer Terry Pratchett. First published in 1971, it was later re-written by the author when his work became more widespread and well-known. In the Author's Note of the revised edition, published in 1992, Pratchett wrote: "This book had two authors, and they were both the same person."


''The Carpet People'' contains much of the humour and some of the concepts which later became a major part of the Discworld series, as well as parodies of everyday objects from our world. Before creating the Discworld, Pratchett wrote about two different flat worlds, first in this novel, and then in the novel ''Strata''.
Lords and Ladies (novel): '''''Lords and Ladies''''' is a fantasy novel by British writer Terry Pratchett, the fourteenth ''Discworld'' book. It was originally published in 1992. Some parts of the storyline spoof elements of Shakespeare's play ''A Midsummer Night's Dream''.
