Gods The
Great Om finds himself a turtle. We're not
talking about getting a pet, he is
a turtle!
And the only one who can hear him is a young,
rather slow student monk named Brutha,
who nobody listens too.
If he doesn't find out how this happened, he may
end up as one of the whispering voices
in the desert (or lunch for a very determined
eagle).
What's a God to do?
Strips
the skin off the history of organised
religions, then salts it liberally. This
is the one I tend to suggest as the first
read for Discworld virgins.
In Discworld terms, it's also the history
of the Ominian Church, something that is
mentioned in other books, thus can give a
better understanding of what the Church
is about (starts with fire, ends in
leaflets). |
