It's always said that this isn't a good introduction to Discworld - I struggled with it the first time I read it and read the graphic novel of this and The Light Fantastic first - and I still agree, but this was more enjoyable than I expected or remembered. Its too much almost making fun of Fantasy and not enough of what Pratchett would settle into, but it's really fun and a good introduction to Rincewind. I'm glad I finally decided to reread these.
