Sourcery

Discworld, Book 5

By: Terry Pratchett

Narrated by: Tony Robinson

" All these books and stuff, that isn't what it should all be about. What we need is real wizardry."

All is not well within the Unseen University. The endemic politics of the place have ensured that it has finally got what it wished for: the most powerful wizard on the disc - which could mean that the death of all wizardry is at hand. And that the world is going to end, depending on whom you listen to. Unless, of course, one inept wizard can take the University's most precious artefact, the very embodiment of magic itself, and deliver it halfway across the disc to safety.

Critic reviews

"May well be considered his masterpiece...Humour such as his is an endangered species." (The Times)

great book about the uu

a little short but still worth it. a great read and it's ready really well

Mediocre

I loved The Colour of Magic and The Light Fantastic, but this story fell a little flat in comparison. It didn't help that I kept getting confused about which character was speaking as the narrator only seemed to have a handful of voices too similar to each other to choose from - and even those felt picked at random rather than deliberately chosen to best portray the character.
