Sir Terry Pratchett, celým jménem Terence David John Pratchett, je přední anglický autor žánru fantasy. Terryho díla spojují čtenáře po celém světě napříč všemi věkovými generacemi až dodnes. V roce 1998 získal čestný Řád britského impéria v hodnosti Officer za službu literatuře. Královna Alžběta II. jej v roce 2009 jmenovala rytířem, proto smí před jménem používat titul sir.
Nejvíce se proslavil knižní sérií Úžasná Zeměplocha (Discworld), která dohromady zahrnuje 40 knih, povídek, map a dalších publikací. Ohromná humoristická sága o promyšleném fiktivním světě, který se nachází na hřbetě želvy, obsahuje všechny moderní prvky fantasy literatury. Současně paroduje známá díla předních tvůrců fantasy, ale obohacuje dílo také o motivy z mytologie, folklóru a pohádek. Patří sem knihy - Muži ve zbrani (2014), Těžké melodično (1998), Magický prazdroj (1995) a mnohé další.
Mezi další významná díla patří například série příběhů Johnnyho Maxwella, který vidí mrtvé, mimozemšťany a spoustu dalších divných věcí. Kromě fantasy napsal také několik sci-fi příběhů, jako je například Odvrácená strana slunce (The Dark Side of the Sun, 1976) či Strata (1981).
