Bumbling wizard Rincewind and hapless tourist Twoflower have survived a host of misadventures . . . only to face annihilation as a red star hurtles towards the Discworld in this gloriously funny second installment in Sir Terry Pratchetts Discworld series (also the second book in the Wizards collection)
Its just one of those days when nothing seems to go rightand a most inopportune time for the first tourist ever to set foot in Discworldaccompanied by the carnivorous Luggageto extend his already eventful vacation, even if its not quite by choice. A monstrous red star is on a direct collision course with the Discworld and the future appears uncertain at best.
Discworld needs a hero to save it from total destruction. Unfortunately, its got the bumbling Rincewind, still recovering from the trauma of falling off the edge of the world. The alternative couldnt be much worse. . . .
