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.

Critical Reviews

"Truly original....Discworld is more complicated and satisfactory than Oz.... Has the energy of The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy and the inventiveness of Alice in Wonderland....Brilliant!"

-- A. S. Byatt

- "Persistently amusing, good-hearted and shrewd." --"The Sunday Times"

- "Pratchett keeps getting better and better... It's hard to think of any humorist writing in Britain today who can match him." --"Time Out"
