Terry Pratchett's profoundly irreverent novels are consistent number one bestsellers in England, where they have garnered him a revered position in the halls of parody next to Mark Twain, Kurt Vonnegut, Douglas Adams, and Carl Hiaasen.The Color of Magic is Terry Pratchett's maiden voyage through the now-legendary land of Discworld. This is where it all begins--with the tourist Twoflower and his wizard guide, Rincewind.

Content warning Lite røpevarsel for Terry Pratchett sin "The Colour of Magic"

Eg ble aldri heilt frelst av denne boka, men då den består av fire ganske sjølvstendige delar ble det lett å halde seg interessert. Konseptet med ei verd si fyrste turist var gøy.

Dette er ikkje ei slik bok kor du får uttelling på alt du ynskjar. Figurae forsvinn ut av historia like fort som dei blir introdusert. Som ein episodisk fjernsynserie.

A fantasy world for the irreverent

5 stars

This is the first of Pratchett's Discworld series. I have read and enjoyed others in the setting but had never read this one. In case you are new to it, the discworld is literally a disc-shaped world being carried through space on the backs of four elephants, which are standing on a great tortoise. As you can tell, the rules are all different in this world. If you are looking for deep history and fully formed fantasy languages keep looking. If you want a laugh-out-loud fun romp, open this happy tome.

Mrakoplaše zrovna nemusím, ale tohle byla moje první kniha o Zeměploše a chytlo mě to.
