Advantages: More than a little bit amusing | Re-readable to the nth degree Disadvantages: Need to read several times to find all the jokes.
A giant turtle is slowly makes it's way across the expanse of space, and on his (or her) meteor pocked shell stand four rather large elephants, who in turn carry the flat, circular, and highly magical Discworld. Discworld is world of heroes, heroines, witches and wizards, where magic is a very real part of life and DEATH may just come to collect your soul in person (well in bones anyway).
There's a very good reason why the wizards of Discworld ...

The storey follows Rincewind, the inept wizzard, and the luggage as they again save the world with the aid of a sock and a half brick, and has interesting views on how a harem works.
This is a hilarious book that I have now read several times and it only gets better as little details previously missed become apparant ...
