Small Gods by Terry Pratchett

Small Gods by Terry Pratchett

In such a competitive environment, it's certainly not helpful to be reduced to appearing in the form of a tortoise, a manifestation far below god-like status in anyone's book. In such instances, you need an acolyte, and fast: for the Great God Om, Brutha the novice is the Chosen One or at least the only One available.

'Deftly weaves themes of forgiveness, belief and spiritual regeneration...While other writers gnaw at violence, sexuality and rootless despair'—The Times

'An intriguing satire on institutionalized religion corrupted by power, crackling with one-liners while obliquely suggesting that maybe gods are only as powerful as the beliefs of their followers'—Independent

'Spectacular inventiveness make the Discworld series one of the perennial joys of modern fiction'—Mail on Sunday

Terry Pratchett was the acclaimed creator of the global bestselling Discworld series, the first of which, The Colour of Magic, was published in 1983. In all, he was the author of over fifty bestselling books which have sold over 100 million copies worldwide. His novels have been widely adapted for stage and screen, and he was the winner of multiple prizes, including the Carnegie Medal. He was awarded a knighthood for services to literature in 2009, although he always wryly maintained that his greatest service to literature was to avoid writing any. www.terrypratchettbooks.com Ray Friesen was nominated for the Ignatz Award for Most Promising New Talent during his first year of cartooning professionally, but has no knighthood yet. He lives with his wife and child in California, dispensing justice and mostly accurate baking advice.
