Rincewind is back in another hilarious Discworld adventure, featuring Sir Terry Pratchett's classic wit and satirical edge
'One of our greatest fantasists, and beyond a doubt the funniest' George R.R. Martin
There was an eighth son of an eighth son. He was, quite naturally, a wizard. And there it should have ended.
However (for reasons we'd better not go into), he had seven sons. And then he had an eighth son... a wizard squared... a source of magic... a Sourcerer.
Sourcery sees the return of Rincewind and the Luggage as the Discworld faces its greatest - and funniest - challenge yet.
Readers love Sourcery:
'I was so pleased to be back with Rincewind, and of course, The Luggage . . . I enjoyed every moment' Goodreads reviewer, ? ? ? ? ?
'Takes on sword and sorcery fantasies, taking satirical swipes at pretty much all the big ones- Lord of the Rings, Narnia, Fantasia, The Tempest, Conan the Barbarian, 1001 Nights, Fafhrd and Grey Mouser . . . One of my favourite Discworld novels so far' Goodreads reviewer, ? ? ? ? ?
'A pretty darn good book . . . in my opinion has a bit more depth and detail than the first few books, and feels like the Discworld is becoming much more of a "World"' Goodreads reviewer, ? ? ? ? ?
'It had magic, it had heroes (and heroines), it had the Librarian, it had Rincewind, it had The Luggage and it had DEATH. What more do you need for a great Discworld novel' Goodreads reviewer, ? ? ? ?
'I adore the Luggage and Rincewind is a great character . . . I simply love Terry's writing and how quick he is with a joke. I love the humour and just how absurd it all is' Goodreads reviewer, ? ? ? ?
'Wonderful imagination and terrific humour as usual from this excellent fantasy author' Goodreads reviewer, ? ? ? ? ?
