'Deftly weaves themes of forgiveness, belief and spiritual
regeneration' The Times The Discworld is very much like our own -
if our own were to consist of a flat planet balanced on the back of
four elephants which stand on the back of a giant turtle, that is .
. . 'Just because you can't explain it, doesn't mean it's a
miracle.' In the beginning was the Word. And the Word was: 'Hey,
you!' This is the Discworld, after all, and religion is a
controversial business. Everyone has their own opinion, and indeed
their own gods, of every shape and size, and all elbowing for space
at the top. In such a competitive environment, shape and size can
be pretty crucial to make one's presence felt. So it's certainly
not helpful to be reduced to appearing in the form of a tortoise, a
manifestation far below god-like status in anyone's book. In such
instances, you need an acolyte, and fast: for the Great God Om,
Brutha the novice is the Chosen One - or at least the only One
available. He wants peace and justice and brotherly love. He also
wants the Inquisition to stop torturing him now, please . . .
___________________ The Discworld novels can be read in any order
but Small Gods is a standalone novel.
