Description
The fifth Discworld novel and third in the Wizards series - revamped with a fresh bold look targeting a new generation of fantasy fans.
'All this books and stuff, that isn't what it should all be about. What we need is real wizardry.'
Once there was an eighth son of an eighth son, a wizard squared, a source of magic. A Sourcerer.
Unseen University, the most magical establishment on the Discworld, has finally got its wish—the emergence of a wizard more powerful than they've ever seen. You'd think the smartest men on the Disc would have been a little more careful what they wished for.
As the drastic consequences of sourcery begin to unfold, one wizard holds the solution in his cowardly, incompetent hands. Rincewind must take the University's most precious artefact, the very embodiment of magic itself, and deliver it halfway across the Disc to safety... If he doesn't make it, the death of all wizardry is at hand.
And the end of the world, depending on who you listen to.
'May well be considered his masterpiece... Humour such as his is an endangered species' The Times
Sourcery is the third book in the Wizards series, but you can read the Discworld novels in any order.

About the Author
Terry Pratchett was the acclaimed creator of the global bestselling Discworld series, the first of which, The Colour of Magic, was published in 1983. In all, he was the author of over fifty bestselling books which have sold over 100 million copies worldwide. His novels have been widely adapted for stage and screen, and he was the winner of multiple prizes, including the Carnegie Medal. He was awarded a knighthood for services to literature in 2009, although he always wryly maintained that his greatest service to literature was to avoid writing any.
