Advantages: Funny

Disadvantages: Short

While without a doubt, the shortest Discworld book ever it’s also one of the funniest. The story is based around Rincewind and the Luggage (Who along with Death are my favourite characters) as well as a teenage Demonologist known as, Eric. It all begins with Rincewind being mistaken for a Demon by Eric (Assisted by the appearance of the Luggage) and continues with all three of them going on a series of more and more unlikely adventures, including a trip to hell. Only hell isn’t quite hell as you would expect, it’s how Crowley from Good Omens would want it run. Memo’s, board meetings and so on. In fact, the book as a whole reminds me strongly of Good Omens. Not that’s a bad thing, far from it – Good Omens is one of the best books I’ve ever read. This is Pratchett at his best if also his briefest, definitely recommended.
