The Amazing Maurice And His Educated Rodents

A Story of Discworld

Plot

Maurice, a streetwise tomcat, has the perfect money-making scam. Everyone knows the stories about rats and pipers, and Maurice has a stupid-looking kid with a pipe, and his very own plague of rats - strangely educated rats. But in Bad Blintz, the little con suddenly goes down the drain, for someone there is playing a different tune and now the rats must learn a new word. Evil. It's not a game any more. It's a rat-eat-rat world. And that might only be the start.
