Joel A reviewed The Color of Magic by Terry Pratchett (The Discworld series)
Shaggy but fun
4 stars
OK, the plot had enormous confusing holes but it was amusing all the way through on a scene-by-scene level.

Terry Pratchett's profoundly irreverent novels are consistent number one bestsellers in England, where they have garnered him a revered position in the halls of parody next to Mark Twain, Kurt Vonnegut, Douglas Adams, and Carl Hiaasen.The Color of Magic is Terry Pratchett's maiden voyage through the now-legendary land of Discworld. This is where it all begins--with the tourist Twoflower and his wizard guide, Rincewind.
