The Light Fantastic is a comic fantasy novel by Terry Pratchett, the second of the Discworld series. It was published on 2 June 1986, the first printing being of 1,034 copies. The title, taken from a poem by John Milton, in which it refers to dancing lightly with extravagance. The events of the novel are a direct continuation of those in the preceding book, The Colour of Magic.
This feels coherent and raises the serious topics such as that one of fascism and fanaticism which are so often treated by Pratchett. Lovely parting with Twoflower and amazing outro. Hooked me hard on the wizards stories.
This was an absolute blast to read after The Colour of Magic. It's still nuts and kind of all over the place. But I was prepared for that and damn was it fun.
Perkeisiin pitää lukea peräkkäin kymmenen kirjaa samalta kirjailijalta. Kahlaanpa nyt sitten tammikuun ratoksi kymmenen Kiekkomaailma-kirjaa. Sarjan toisessa osassa suuri tähti lähestyy ja uhkaa kärventää koko maailman, joten antisankarimme päätyvät tahtomattaankin pelastamaan maailmaa, ja vastoin kaikkia todennäköisyyksiä luulevat siinä onnistuneensakin.
