I cannot wait to pick up the next book in this series; the sheer wit and ingenuity is phenomenal!  Nowadays I’m constantly worried how the precedent set by Star Wars and Lord of the Rings is restricting how people approach fantasy and science fiction, and going back to old pulp like the Color of Magic is a breath of fresh air.  The setting and it’s rules are inventive, and you can tell that Fun was on Pratchett’s mind from the very get go.
