Eric: A Discworld Novel

Language English

This is one of those books that gets better the more you read it. My first time through, I liked it. My second time, I loved it. Pratchett grows on you, and the more familiar you are with Discworld, the more you’ll enjoy all of his books. I wouldn’t necessarily start reading the series with this book, but that does not diminish it’s excellence. That excellence is not surprising.

Jinx is not as interesting as her other series, but as Cabot is famous for turning her books to series, i except to see more of Jinx. Jinx is a nice girl. I think with some depth on this character the book would have been more interesting. Jean is the most unluckiest person ever to live, she is jinxed. Things gets worse when she reaches New York. Jean is funny. Looking forward for another book. Its another great start for a series.

Guards! Guards! (Discworld Novel)

Paperback: 320 pages
Publisher: Corgi Books; New Ed edition (16 Nov 1990)
Language English
ISBN-10: 0552134627
ISBN-13: 978-0552134620
Product Dimensions: 17 x 10.6 x 3.4 cm

From the very first page – i.e, the dedication page – you know what’s in store. Terry’s funny and nail-on-the-head description of guards, mostly doomed to be knocked about by some muscled hero, is so wonderfully funny and yet so brilliantly true-to-life – despite being in set in an ‘astral plane that was never meant to fly’ – that you can’t help reading it right through. I’ve been a fan of Terry Pratchett since I read Light Fantastic and the Colour of Magic , and I must say with complete honesty that this is truly the best Discworld novel ever. Read More »
