The Light Fantastic - YoungramWyrm

7h 42m; Narrated by: Colin Morgan, Peter Serafinowicz, Bill Nighy

English language

The Discworld is in danger, heading towards a seemingly inevitable collision with a malevolent red star, its magic fading. It needs a hero, and fast.

What it doesn't need is Rincewind, an inept and cowardly wizard who is still recovering from the trauma of falling off the edge of the world. Or Twoflower, the well-meaning tourist whose luggage has a mind (and legs) of its own.

Which is a shame, because that's all there is....

Pablo reviewed The Light Fantastic : discworld novel 2 by Terry Pratchett

Better than the first

4 stars

Preferred this over The Colour of Magic, mainly due to it having a single overarching plot throughout the whole book unlike the first which felt more like random adventures stuck together.

Excited to read more from Discworld as l've read these first two books are not "the best ones" in the series
