People saying this is one of the worse Discworld entries, the rest of the series better suck me off cause this book was amazing.

This was adventurous and funny. I found myself giggling every time the luggage showed up and the luggage is probably my favorite character.

Can't believe this is the "first" book in the discworld. It has the charm but ho boy is it hard to follow. Event he writing style, with the way it flits back and forth from POVs, is hard to keep straight. The book is still entertaining and Pratchett's ability for a clever turn of phrase is legendary. But can see why people recommend starting on other series. Spent about the same amount of time laughing as I did confused as to what was even happening. Will come back to Rincewind after exploring the City Watch series and some of the Discworld standalones.

This was a lot of fun! Ends on quite the cliffhanger (ha!) … I’m going straight to pick up the second book!
