The second Discworld novel and second in the Wizards series - revamped with a fresh bold look targeting a new generation of fantasy fans.
´Darkness isn´t the opposite of light, it is simply its absence . . . what was radiating from the book was the light that lies on the far side of darkness, the light fantastic.´
The Discworld is in danger, heading towards a seemingly inevitable collision with a malevolent red star. It needs a hero.
What it doesn´t need is Rincewind, an inept and cowardly wizard who is still recovering from the trauma of falling off the edge of the world. Or Twoflower, the well-meaning tourist whose luggage has a mind (and legs) of its own.
Which is a shame, because that´s all there is . . .
´Incredibly funny, compulsively readable´ The Times
The Light Fantastic is the second book in the Wizards series, but you can read the Discworld novels in any order.
