I bought this on Kobo too
https://www.kobo.com/gb/en/ebook/the-last-hero-8
It's fixed layout. Only really works on my 14.25″ tablet. Just about useable on the 10.9″ tablet. Useless on 8" Sage.

Dont get this for your ereader
I wish I had read the other review before purchasing. I love all of the discworld books, but this is extreamly difficult to read if you are using an ereader and is not worth purchasing.

Caution, fixed layout format!
This book holds a special place in my heart so I was glad to finally pick it up in digital form. Note that this book is prepared in fixed layout format which may require you to pan and zoom a bit. The two-page spreads in particular work best in landscape orientation, so if your device cannot rotate you will be missing out on some of the best art in the book. (You can still see it, but it will be split into left and right pages.) From an accessibility standpoint, unfortunately, the text contents of the HTML documents in this ePub do not match the text contents of the fixed-layout image loaded in for each document. The word count of 28k words likely arises from automatic processing of this erroneous transcription, but the images themselves are fine. The publisher did an excellent job balancing file size with giving Paul Kidby's wonderful artwork enough detail to shine. Thrilled to finally have this on my e-shelf!
