An as-yet unwritten book whose title was released several years ago, prior to the publication of Thud!, Unseen Academicals, Snuff and now Raising Steam as that of a forthcoming [[Discworld}} book..

It is possible that any book projects with provisional titles such as "Scouting for Trolls" or 'Raising Taxes' have either been indefinitely shelved, or else abandoned completely.

Raising Steam, in its first few pages, mentions a former Scout called Magnus Magnusson, and through him something of the ethos and organisation of an Ankh-Morporkian scout troop is described - it is all-inclusive and issues proficiency badges. A boy-scout like association in Ankh-Morprork is occassionally referenced throughout the book. You wonder if the material originally intended for a book like "Scouting for Trolls" has been lodged in the Crypt, for piecemeal use in other books? AgProv (talk) 03:05, 14 November 2013 (GMT)
