Description
The Light Fantastic is a fantasy novel that tells the story of a singularly inept wizard, Rincewind, who is the only possible saviour of the Discworld. The Discworld is in danger of colliding with a malevolent red star, and Rincewind must find a way to stop it. The fate of the Discworld hangs in the balance, and Rincewind's ineptitude is put to the test. As the Discworld hurtles towards its destiny, the only creature in the universe that knows exactly where it is going is the star turtle, Great A'Tuin. The turtle's journey is a mystery to philosophers, who are eagerly awaiting the answer in just two months' time. Meanwhile, Rincewind must confront his own limitations and find a way to save the Discworld. This is a humorous and imaginative tale of adventure and danger, with a unique and quirky cast of characters.
