Pratchett signature witty prose in its infancy. It introduces the Discworld, his famous fantasy world in the shape of a disc, hold by four elephants carried by a giant turtle that floats trough space. The coward and weakling Rincewind, a expelled magician who knows only one spell which he cannot ever cast, is charged to protected the incredibly naive and optimistic Twoflower, the Disc's first tourist visiting the world most vicious, dangerous and smelly city. The world is interesting, the prose kind of good but the story fails to keep you interested to read through.
