A year ago, a group of authors got together to pay tribute to Sir Terrence \"Terry\" Pratchett, a fantasy genre giant and a sufferer from Alzheimer’s. They formed \"The Longest Night Watch,\" and, not content with one anthology, went on to enter writing team competitions and plot a follow up volume.

✦ Synopsis
On March 12th, 2015, the writing world lost one of its greatest contemporary heroes - Sir Terrence "Terry" Pratchett. To honor his life, a group of writers decided to publish an anthology of stories that showcased his influence on their writing, and also would help bring awareness of the disease that contributed to his end, Alzheimer’s Disease.
Found in this volume are eleven stories and poems by nine authors, most of which are humorous and fantastical, but threaded among those are tales of the loss and confusion unique to Alzheimer’s, dementia, and those who must watch their loved ones disappear before their eyes. Contributing writers include Amanda Parker Adams, Andrew Barber, Joshua L. Cejka, Connie Cockrell, Janet Gershen-Siegel, D.R. Perry, R.R. Virdi, Michael Walton and Lacey D. Sutton.
All proceeds from sales of this book will be donated to the Alzheimer’s Association, in the hope of one day finding a cure.
