The Light Fantastic

Rincewind the wizard has a knack for disaster. But when a massive star threatens to collide with the Discworld, this accidental hero may be the only one who can stop it. Rincewind reluctantly teams up with a magical tourist, a sassy librarian, and a sentient treasure chest to embark on a wild journey across the Disc. With narrow escapes, zany characters, and a fate-of-the-world at stake, Rincewind must use his wits - and a bit of luck - to prevent the apocalypse and maybe even become a hero in the process.
