Sourcery is definitely one of my least favourite in the series, and I would recommend skipping it (too late now).Just finished Discworld 05, Sourcery, by Terry Pratchett. This took a lot longer to finish than the others so far. Not quite tedious, but definitely slower for me. Not a fan of high magic, so a book all about how awesome and limitless magic…sorry, sourcery…is was always going to be difficult. Might need to read someone else for a bit as a palette cleanser then come back to the series after a break.
No, in fact he is least annoying in Last Continent. But all the Rincewind stories tend towards "whacky comedy". The other discworld stories are rather more subtle (and usually have something to say about the real world).Ouch. Does he get significantly worse as the novels go on? So far he's just a coward who blunders his way into trouble, can't cast spells, can't spell, and generally survives by GM...erm, author fiat.
