Thirteen-year-old Eric and Rincewood the wizard have many adventures trying to escape from the equally horrifying and ludicrous beings and places of the magical Dungeon Dimension.
Una historia que se sale de la habitual haciendo parodias de eventos historicos, leyendas antiguas y que te hace viajar desde los albores de la creación con Rincewind, un niñato demasiado ambicioso y un loro al que querrías meter en la cazuela cada dos palabras.
Como siempre descripciones magníficas y un humor a veces finísimo y a veces estupido, ambos geniales.
Wherein: Eric learns to be careful what you wish for and to read the fine print of the wishing rules. Rincewind appears to possibly have -some- magic skills and definitely has great "run away" skills. The Luggage continues to be a strong candidate for my favorite Discworld character (it's a tight race with the Librarian).
This is an absolutely banging Douglas Adams book with references that aren't so hyperspecific to the 80s that they're still funny. Ish. As a Discworld book that's actually by PTerry it's a bit of a throwback to his earlier books, more gags and less storytelling.
