Light Fantastic by Terry Pratchett, 241 pagesThe Light Fantastic was, well fantastic. It is the first novel in quite some time that has actually made me laugh out loud. It is the continuation of the Discworld series and so again follows the travels of Rincewind, Twoflower and Luggage.
Following their not quite an escape in the last book they strangely end up not dead. This is of course all the spells fault, but really what isn't in Rincewinds life. Actually their not dying is rather important as it turns out the entire discworld's future relies on them not being dead. This is the strange tale of what happens when they are not dead. From the talking trees and rocks to crazy wizards and redcaps it is one heck of an adventure.
If you liked any of Pratchett's other work or like the puns and silliness of Piers Anthony you should most certainly give this a read. Though unless you read Colour of Magic it wont make much sense. Actually even after reading Colour of Magic, it doesnt make that much sense.
