Publisher Description
"Unadulterated fun. . . witty, frequently hilarious." —San Francisco Chronicle
The third novel in New York Times bestselling author Terry Pratchett's Discworld series, a fantasy universe where anything can happen—and usually does.
A dying wizard tries to pass his staff on to the eighth son of an eighth son. When it is revealed that the he is a girl named Esk, the news of the female wizard sends the citizens of Discworld into a tail-spin.
With their biting satire and limitless imagination, it is easy to understand why 80 million Discworld books have been sold worldwide. Equal Rites possesses rich characterizations, a journey of awareness, and even a hint of romance from master storyteller Terry Pratchett.
Customer Reviews
Totally magic
Can see this book easily made into a tv series! Would love to see how this would be done! TP must not allow any imagery to be spoiled by putting any of his books into another media. Something to be said to using your own imagination and not have anyone change the magical feeling you get when you read TP and Disc World. This book introduces Granny W. And she’s wonderful.
Page order
On the iPhone 6+ the right order to read is:
1 - 68 (ends with granny writing a letter)
163 - 244 (starts with the text of the letter written on p.68)
69 - 162
Perhaps other screen sizes get a different amount on each page?
First and second halves need to be switched around--pls fix!!
I love Terry Pratchett and the book is great.
BUT somehow the first and second halves of this book have been switched around. So halfway through the book you realize that you're now reading what is actually the first part of the story. Not cool. Please fix this error!!
