The Light Fantastic by Terry Pratchett

This book continues the journeys of Rincewind, Twoflower, and the Luggage, who when we last saw them, were hurtling off the side of the Disc. I found this book much funnier than The Color of Magic, but that may just be because I'm starting to get Pratchett's sense of humor. I particularly liked the sidebars about metaphor and description, the way that the wizards generally had no idea what was going on, the metaphysics behind the Octavo, the star, and A'Tuin, and the new characters, especially Cohen the Barbarian. A delightful read.
