"There was an eighth son of an eighth son. He was, quite naturally, a wizard. And there it should have ended. However (for reasons we'd better not go into), he had seven sons. And then he had an eighth son ... a wizard squared ... a source of magic ... a Sourcerer."

Rincewind's back but this time it's without Twoflower. There isn't really too much to say about this book. It's a bit different from "The Colour of Magic" and "The Light Fantastic". Probably a little bit better. If you liked them, you'll like this. Basically it's more Rincewind, not that there's anything wrong with that.
