But what a great start with the bones for marvellous works to come. ( ) I've heard so much about Terry Pratchett's Discworld series, that I thought I should try it. I had also heard that the first one wasn't that great. But since I am a completist, and couldn't imagine skipping the first book in a series, here we are. I enjoyed the parodies of Fafhrd and the Gray Mouser, what I think were some Lovecraftian references, and also the Dragonriders of Pern. And some of the turns of phrase were really clever. But overall it didn't really hold my interest. I will, however, try another one in the hopes that I like it better. This is the first Discworld novel I read, despite many people recommending starting with a later book. I enjoyed it, but recognized that it wasn't really up to snuff with many later Discworld books. The humour is present and funny but the story feels relatively basic and, in a way, disjointed as a sword-and-sorcery parody. I'd still recommend it, but not as a first Discworld read. És un bon llibre, però palideix davant l’inmensitat del Discmòn. Es nota que és el primer de tots. Segurix sent un Prattchet molt entretingut, pero l’he notat un poc dispers, cosa que no ha ajudat a capficar-me del tot. L’estructura és interesant i acaba sent més un recull de relata casi que una novela com a tal. Pero pot ser aixó és el que m’ha fallat un poc. Pero en aixó entraven les expectatives personals. Tot i així, he rigut com pocs llibres i tinc ganes de veure com Gratavent segueix esquivant la Mort. This was a re-read for me, though aside from knowing Rincewind the wizard finds himself acting as escort to the tourist Twoflower, and his enigmatic Luggage, I'd forgotten basically every detail. It was fun being back in a world that felt vaguely familiar and also new. This is a goofy collection of short stories, though they are told in a linear fashion. You've got to be prepared to encounter the absurd and just roll with it. Though there are also a lot of ways Pratchett parodies our everyday lives through his fantasy, which I appreciated. I'm looking forward to actually moving through the series (following Rincewind for now) at a pace where I won't just forget everything that happened by the time I read the next book. sem resenhas | adicionar uma resenha

Terry Pratchett's profoundly irreverent, bestselling novels have garnered him a revered position in the halls of parody next to the likes of 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.
