Event Details
Is your copy of War and Peace propping open the front door? Have you started Pride and Prejudice more times than your car? If so, join the book club devoted to turning that masterpiece into a piece of cake! We’ll tackle another classic work each month to see if it deserves its place on history’s highest shelf.
This month, we are reading: The Colour of Magic (1983) and The Light Fantastic (1986) by Terry Pratchett
With these first two books of the hugely popular Discworld series, British author Terry Pratchett introduced the world to a very different kind of fantasy novel. An incompetent wizard, a naive insurance clerk, and trolls aplenty all come together for the silliest of quests in a universe much like our own. Described as "an attempt to do for the classical fantasy universe what Blazing Saddles did for Westerns," you'll never look at a wizard the same way again.
