It seems every Discworld novel I read is a bit more entertaining than the last. I haven’t laughed this hard at a book since Ian Doescher penned the words [Exit, pursued by a wampa. Feminism on the Disc is really . . . well, it’s really something! I loved spending time with Granny and Esk and hardly ...
I'm an incoherent, blubbering, giggling mess after reading this. I'm also kicking myself for not having started to read these earlier. I must have highlighted over 50% of my Kindle edition, because Pratchett was such a genius at putting words together in the most amazing - dare I say magical? - ways...
Equal Rites by Terry Pratchett Book 3 of Discworld | Book 1 of Witches On Discworld, a dying wizard tries to pass on his powers to an eighth son of an eighth son, who is just at that moment being born. The fact that the son is actually a daughter is discovered just a little too late. The town ...

My original review can be found here. I really enjoyed this re-read. There was a lot to re-discover and a lot that I had missed on the first read, such as Pratchett getting the hang of fleshing out characters and interactions between his characters. Equal Rites is not widely regarded as one of ...
So, this was my first foray into Discworld - and I've been given the impression that it's an early Discworld and shouldn't serve as my final impression of the series. This led me to believe that it probably wasn't very good, or at least not very good relative to the series as a whole. I liked the ...
So far I´m not the biggest Terry Pratchett fan. I´m still looking for that book that pulls me completely into the quirky Pratchett universe. Equal Rites is my third Pratchett and unfortunately I´m still not enthusiatic about his books (but I´m not giving up). In Equal Rites a wizard makes the grav...
