On the contrary, the mad romp through several hitherto unseen countries on the disc was delightful' Goodreads reviewer, ? ? ? ? ?'Pratchett at his theological best' Goodreads reviewer, ? ? ? ? ?'This extremely cleaver religious satire is one of the top Pratchett's work as organized religion becomes target of his wit and cynicism' Goodreads reviewer, ? ? ? ? ?'A true delight. Also, as I finished the book, I felt my cold go away . . . hallelujah for the curative properties of wonderful books' Goodreads reviewer, ? ? ? ? ?
