Re: The Discworld Diaries

Eric is the shortest Rincewind book. I quite enjoyed it but it only takes half a day to get through. It mainly contains elements from Faust, Aztec civilization, and the battle of Troy

Day fifteen:

If one person, A, sends two packages, i and ii, from point Y to one person, B, at point Z using for both packages company X, and ships both packages off at the same day, logic tells me they should both arrive on day P, yeah? Guess what...

I read Witches Abroad a while before Lords and Ladies. So I must have been OK without knowing it.

Re: The Discworld Diaries

Looks like it. I definitely prefer the Josh Kirby covers, they're so detailed and strange!

I hope you like enjoy the Colour of Magic, Marky. I really like the earlier books, especially the ones with Rincewind. He's great

Re: The Discworld Diaries

It's the US version. They all have the same dull and dumb cover design. Yeah, that looks like the Luggage, not supposed to be this flashy, eh? See the close-up: Amazon Online Reader : The Color of Magic
