The rats gained human intelligence by eating rubbish from the Unseen University, while Maurice became intelligent after eating one of them.
Maurice the cat operates a money-making scam with a group of rats and Keith, a teenage boy. Terry Pratchett leads readers from tale to tail in a darkly imaginative and fiendishly entertaining story, the first for young readers set in the Discworld universe. Something very, very bad is waiting in the cellars. For someone there is playing a different tune.
And everyone knows the stories about rats and pipers.īut when they reach the stricken town of Bad Blintz, the little con suddenly goes down the drain. He's found a stupid-looking kid who plays a pipe, and he has his very own plague of rats who are strangely educated, so Maurice can no longer think of them as 'lunch'. Maurice, a streetwise tomcat, has the perfect money-making scam.
