Small Gods: A Discworld Novel

Origin of the alphabet; number line, computer is the same place. There isn't a calendar without a programmer; different ones in society are for companies to supply basic utilities; motor vehicles, food clothes & shelter. Computer programs give the answers to outstanding questions; humans do not. They also drive all artificial moving objects; humans do not. One program designs all the building and a different one does cars; the program includes after they are built schedules for them and us. Cameras are a derivative of computer separate from video recorder for unreal pictures and photograph obstructing justice to disappear or vanish includes video tapes & DVD's.

simply put it; if you like satirical/humorous sci-fi or fantasy (authours like Douglas Adams, Piers Anthony (Xanth series) Robert Kroese, Tom Holt or Robert Rankin) you'll love Terry Pratchett. Small gods is a stand alone novel in the Discworld series (Meaning you can read it before you've read any of the other books in the series or after any other book in the series without being confused); but all the books of the series take place in "Discworld."). That said, if you are thinking of dipping your toes into the series of Pratchett's work, I would recommend you start with another stand alone novel like" "Going Postal." I think it's one of my favourite reads and it doesn't require any background knowledge of the Discworld. I think that although Small gods is a stand alone novel, one would appreciate it more if you knew more about the setting, culture and the religion on the Disc. If you are interested in reading the series in order you can go one of two ways; you can read them in the order they were published or the order in which each sets of the characters progress. Either way, do a search for Discworld reading guide to learn about the different ways to read the series.

This book started off slow for me at first but soon I couldnt put it down! With Terrys usual humor he puts fun into this crazy adventure that touches on religion, beliefs and many human traits that we all may or may not experience in our lives. And turtles. Cant forget them. "Theres good eatin in one of them, you know," ;)
