9 Eric This is the shortest of the Discworld novels because it was originally written as a graphic and text work in the same manner as the later book, The Last Hero; some say that the story suffers somewhat because of this. Nevertheless it is considered by many to be a very funny tale that takes the reader to the ends of time, Hell, the kingdom of Tezuman, ancient Tsort and, probably best of all, it sees the re-emergence of everyone’s most-loved wizard Rincewind, mistakenly summoned as a demon by the not-so-clever demon expert Eric, who demands his traditional three wished from Rincewind: to be immortal, rule the world, and meet the most beautiful woman who ever lived!
