A classic Discworld novel featuring Sir Terry Pratchett's signature style and wit. A
fascinating and hilarious exploration of organised religion 'An enduring endearing presence in
comic literature' Guardian'Look after the dead' said the priests 'and the dead will look
after you'. Wise words in all probability but a tall order when you have just become the
pharaoh of a small and penniless country whose largesse - and indeed treasury - is unlikely to
stretch to the building of a monumental pyramid to honour your dead father. And particularly
when your only visible means of support is a recently acquired qualification from the Guild of
Assassins where running a kingdom and basic financial acumen were not prerequisites for course
entry... Readers love Pyramids: 'Clever funny and amusing. Very familiar and yet fresh. Maybe
it's because I like mummies and ancient Egypt I enjoyed it so much but parody on gods and
religion is very witty' Goodreads reviewer ⭐ ⭐ ⭐ ⭐ 'Philosophically this is the richest
Discworld novel so far . . . It mounts a delightful critique of tradition and religion'
Goodreads reviewer ⭐ ⭐ ⭐ ⭐ 'Oooo I needed that!!!! Just as exquisite and funny and inelegant
as I needed it to be!!!! I LOVE this author!!!' Goodreads reviewer ⭐ ⭐ ⭐ ⭐ ⭐ 'Fantastic early
largely stand-alone story in my beloved Discworld series' Goodreads reviewer ⭐ ⭐ ⭐ ⭐
