The second in the Discworld series, this book is a continuation of Rincewind's travels with Twoflower the Tourist after almost getting chucked off the Disc. During this adventure, the pair are on the run from a psychotic senior wizard who wants the spell that is lodged in Rincewind's head (long story). Rincewind and Twoflower meet an interesting array of people during their travels, including a couple of heroes, and even get a couple of visits from Death himself. They travel to and from danger, all the time trying to figure out what the new red star in the sky means. Whatever it is, it can't be good...
Favorite Quote: "In much the same way that gnats appear before a thunderstorm, really heavy buildups of magic always attracted things frrom the chaotic Dungeon Dimensions-nasty Things, all misplaced organs and spittle...They won't be described, since even the pretty ones looked like the offspring of an octopus and a bicycle."
