This is more serious Discworld novel, that is at the same time also very funny. It deals with religion and doesn't spare anyone (not even the atheists). It also jokes with philosophers, scientists and anyone else trying to explain the crazy world. It's wonderful!

One of the best books I've ever read on organized religion and belief. Should be required reading for comparative religion classes. And it's damned funny, too.

I defy anyone to read this book and not love it. Go ahead. Try it. It will wipe away the smug little faces we present to the world and replace them with faces swept away in hearty guffaws. A great book to read during the cold rainy days of last week.

This is my favorite Pratchett novel. I have given copies to at least three people and said, "You need to read this."The story of a god whose religion has become more about the church than the god, the book is hilarious at the same time it is thought-provoking.

I really liked the idea of having Gods whose physical stability depended on the number of people that believed in them.

You are going to love this one. It is god who fallen because people stop believing in it. And it took a good person to able to save its ass.The very concept and foundation of god is being illustrated here. You wouldn't notice this at first, but it is right there and keep you thinking while you enjoy...
