Kevins can be quite puzzling at times, which the purveyors of Discworld merchandise seem to have picked up on, because as well as a host of existing jigsaws featuring original designs from the Discworld Emporium, and classic artwork from Discworld.com we’ve got/are getting more!

First up, “The World of Terry Pratchett” is a 1000 piece jigsaw puzzle, by Laurence King, measuring approximately 70cm x 50cm, and illustrated by (Discworld) artist Paul Kidby. It features 140 Discworld characters; from major to minor, and comes complete with a helpful key so that you can put names to faces*, along with various trivia, quotes, and more. The jigsaw is currently available for pre-order, releasing the 3rd of October 2024, and can be (pre)purchased from Discworld.com, The Discworld Emporium, direct from Laurence King, or via various bookstores around the world.

Further information on the jigsaw, and where it can be purchased from outside of the UK, is available on the publisher’s US webpage

For people of a more cartographic nature, the Discworld Emporium has turned their Discworld Map(pa) into a jigsaw puzzle**, which can be purchased from The Discworld Emporium. As an added bonus, if you’re thinking “What? I didn’t know there was a new Discworld map! I need that too!” you can buy the jigsaw and map in a bundle to shave off a few pounds.

**Those emporium artificers do like turning things into jigsaw puzzles. I visited their old shop once, but thankfully I got out before they could turn me into one.
