The Colour of Magic

Discworld 1

"Twoflower was a tourist, the first ever seen on the Discworld. Tourist, Rincewind decided, meant idiot."

Somewhere on the frontier between thought and reality exists the Discworld, a parallel time and place that might sound and smell very much like our own, but that looks completely different. It plays by different rules. Certainly it refuses to succumb to the quaint notion that universes are ruled by pure logic and the harmony of numbers. But just because the Disc is different doesn't mean that some things don't stay the same. Its very existence is about to be threatened by a strange new blight: the arrival of the first tourist, upon whose survival rests the peace and prosperity of the land. But if the person charged with maintaining that survival in the face of robbers, mercenaries, and, well, Death, is a spectacularly inept wizard, a little logic might turn out to be a very good idea.

The Colour of Magic is the first novel in Terry Pratchett's acclaimed Discworld series, of which some 20 million copies have been sold.

"Pratchett is a comic genius." ( Daily Express)

Fantastic.

Tony Robinson

There is absolutely nothing that I disliked!
It’s fantastic and I gonna keep going down to the last book.

really, really good book !

people looked at Me as if I was absolutely mad,while I was giggling at the descriptions of the characters.

Good book badly narrated

This is not Sir Terry’s best book, but it is fun and essential for any fan. This narration, however, is not. Words are pronounced wrong, characters sound off, and the narrator lacks intonation. Do not waste your credits.

Wildly imaginative

Nice read, although a wild imagination can sometimes be viewed as a bit random in the story-telling. The story jumps around a bit where each story I hoped could be told with a bit more detail, especially in the fight scenes.
