The First Discworld Novels: The Colour of Magic and The Light Fantastic: “Colour of Magic”, “Light Fantastic”

Description

This is how the Discworld began. Here is the sapient pearwood Luggage, a mobile trunk which launders any clothes put in it and incidentally homicidally defends its owner. Here is Twoflower, an innocent tourist in a world of nightmares and fairy tales gone wrong. Here is Cohen the Barbarian, the world’s oldest and greatest hero. Here is Death, not such a bad sort when you get to know him. They have adventures. It’d take too long to explain. First published in 1983, The Colour of Magic has been translated into twenty languages, and has sold millions of copies world-wide. The Light Fantastic, published in 1986, follows closely behind, and of all the Discworld novels it is the only true sequel to an earlier work. This is the first time both novels have been published in a single volume. —- ISBN: 9780861404216
