Summary: |
|
The first discworld novel is actually 3 novelettes strung together. The main characters are Rincewind, an incompetent wizard who knows only one spell, and Twoflower, the first tourist on the discworld from the Agatian empire. |
|
This book has little plot and a lot of jokes. The story is mainly about Rincewind and Twoflower running away from all sorts of people all over the discworld - from the stinking city of Ankh Morpork, through the magical mountain Wyrmberg, to the small country Krull, that lies on the edge of the discworld. |
|
This novel shows a world that move around in space on the back of 4 giant elephants, that in turn stand on the back of a giant turtle - Great A�tuin. This is a world where magic is real, and has rules of its own. This is a world where the gods play games with men. This is a world where Death really stalks the streets. |

This is the best fantasy world I have read, and if you like to laugh, you�d love it too. |
