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.
On re-read I was very disappointed. It focuses too much on the comedy and forgets to tell a story.
Full review here.
I almost didn't want to re-read this one because it is so overshadowed in my mind by the series it would spawn. It's weirdly structured and unfocused - more like four sequential short stories than a novel - but it's still an incredible romp across the freshly imagined Discworld (and beyond).
