The Last Continent - Terry Pratchett

Corgi, 1999, original copyright 1998, 412 pages
ISBN:  0-552-14614-5
Read:  January 2016, age 37

The audiobook I was listening to was corrupted.  So I listened to it, and it didn't make sense, so I (re-) read the dead tree version as well.  It's a time travel story, so... it still didn't make sense.  But it made more sense, and was better.

Rincewind is a horribly passive main character.  He runs away from everything.  This can work with an active co-main-character, but in this case, he was all alone.  A main character whose desire is to sit in a pub and eat potatoes... not so much what I wanted to read.  It was a fun book, and funny, but I still had a tough time getting through it.
