Advantages: Great reading

Disadvantages: none!

The Disworld has a lot of Wizards, some good and some completely incompetent, one of these is Rincewind, a wizard that knows only one spell and will never dare use it and has a hat that says 'wizzzard' in sequins.

A wizard is the eighth son of and eighth son, eight is a magic number on the Discworld. Wizards are not meant to have sons, as another eighth son would not be a wizard, but a sorcery, very powerful and very dangerous. Rincewind is, again, the vbery unwilling hero, this time he is helped by Conina the Barbarian ( Cohen the Barbarians daughter, who would really rather be a hairdresser) and also by the luggage, but this is more by luck than judgement.

Rincewind has nothing more than a sock full of sand to defeat this sourcerer
who is being influenced by his dead father who has taken up residence in his staff. A great book, definitely one of the best.

Great Review, I was wondering if you could tell me whether the discworld novels have to be read in order or not, as I do not want to come into a story half way through.
