Description
The Discworld is a flat planet balanced on the back of four elephants, which stand on the back of a giant turtle. This is a world where everyone has their own opinion, and indeed their own gods, of every shape and size. In such a competitive environment, it's not helpful to be reduced to appearing in the form of a tortoise, a manifestation far below god-like status. To make a presence felt, one needs an acolyte, and fast. Brutha, a novice, is the Chosen One - or at least the only One available. He wants peace, justice, and brotherly love, but also wants the Inquisition to stop torturing him. This standalone novel is part of the Discworld series, but can be read on its own. It explores themes of forgiveness, belief, and spiritual regeneration in a humorous and action-packed way.
