Advantages: lots of humour Disadvantages: some descriptons leave ou dizzy
Equal rights is the third book in a series of 36.Its about several different stories taking place on you guessed it a disk world.
The books I have read so far in the series including this one have been full of humour which I have been looking for a series like this for a long time that mixes humour and science fiction/Fantasy. My only problem is that some of the bits of story get a bit mathematical for me.
Background
The disk world rests on crater in the middle of a giant turtle named Great a Train. The book features witches and wizards.
In this book there is something similar to Hogwarts instead its called unseen university where wizards go for training. It is located in a city named Ankh Mort. It was a reputation of being the smelliest city in the world the author even describes it being smellier than France am not sure why ...
Advantages: Funny, light reading... Disadvantages: ... lacks the brilliance of later Discworld books.
Equal Rites is the third in the Discworld series of books. At the beginning an old wizard, who knows he has only a few minutes to live, journeys to a remote village with a silly name in order to pass on his staff to a deserving recipient. He knows that an eighth son of an eighth son has been born, and these are traditionally sorcerers. Off he goes then, looked at with interest by the many goats in the region, and the blacksmith's cat. He tells the blacksmith that his eighth son, just born, will become a wizard and passes on his staff to him, and promptly dies. All is right with the world.
Except? the eighth son isn't actually a son at all. She's a daughter, and everyone knows that women can't become wizards. Witches yes, but wizards? Of course not. Everyone knows this.
Everyone except the highly magical staff, that is?
Thus ...
