 Terry Pratchett's take on religious affairs with monotheism versus polytheism (or is it Christian versus GrecoRomans in the end?). Still a very funny read with "underlying" pokes and jokes against all sides.

One of the best in Discworld series.

 Probably one of the best books I read. The story isn't quite as good as some of the other novels I read by Terry Pratchett but the humor is probably some of the best philosophical humor I read in any book.

 The book disects religion in a very humorous way without offending any community. A fictious novel about a fictious world throwing light on the way religion is misinterpretted in the real world

 A one-off book in the Discworld series, This tells the story of Brutha, a not-so-bright member of the Omnian church who ends up becoming the only true believer left in Om. Oh, and Om tags along with him, in the form of a turtle.

 Nice, quick, funny and entertaining read - just what you'd need on a plane.
And unlike the (never finished reading) Moving Pictures - this one least nicely illutrates why everyone and their brother is raving about Pratchett so much.

 I read a couple reviews that say if you are deeply religious, you shouldn't read this book... Well, I am a Christian and I can tell you that this book is fantastic. Everything doesn't have to be an alegory for something else. The book is a fantastic read and left me laughing out loud several times. I'm a huge fan of Terry Pratchet and this book is only my second in the Discworld series. I have nothing but good things to say about it.

 Complete Heresy. But if you can't stand the heresy, get out of the church.

A great satire of religion. And yet another proof that belief in a church is not the same as belief in God.

More content than most Pratchett, but not too much.

Great fun!
