'An intriguing satire on institutionalized religion corrupted by
power . . .' Independent 'Deftly weaves themes of forgiveness,
belief and spiritual regeneration' The Times In the beginning was
the Word. And the Word was: "Hey, you!" For Brutha the novice is
the Chosen One. He wants peace and justice and brotherly love. He
also wants the Inquisition to stop torturing him now, please . . .
Readers adore Small Gods: 'One of Pratchetts best works, retelling
what has happened, happens, and will happen as soon as faith goes
mad, uncontrolled, and vicious, tries to expand its sphere of
influence and doesnt care about the foundations and rules,
contradicting its own commandments' Goodreads reviewer, 'It makes
you contemplate so many things. Beyond religion too. There were so
many passages when I was musing "It's like this thought has sprung
out of my head but it's written a hundred times better than I would
have said it"' Goodreads reviewer, 'Pratchett creates a host of
characters that represent people and our relationship with
religion, done with thought and hope, a thoroughly laugh out loud
experience' Goodreads reviewer, 'The book is never preachy (see
what I did there? ;P) or boring. On the contrary, the mad romp
through several hitherto unseen countries on the disc was
delightful' Goodreads reviewer, 'Pratchett at his theological best'
Goodreads reviewer, 'This extremely cleaver religious satire is one
of the top Pratchett's work as organized religion becomes target of
his wit and cynicism' Goodreads reviewer, 'A true delight. Also, as
I finished the book, I felt my cold go away . . . hallelujah for
the curative properties of wonderful books' Goodreads reviewer,
