05: Sourcery

Whooooo's excited for another book about Rincewind?! ...Okay, fine, who's tepidly willing to tolerate another book about Rincewind? In this episode we're tackling D-world Book 5: SOURCERY, a book with some interesting things to say about the corrupting nature of power. Unfortunately, this gets buried behind pointless characters, dangling plot threads, and a really, really ill-conceived visit to the half-baked orientalist Seriphate of Klatch. On the bright side, though, we get more Librarian action than we've gotten in any book before, so that's fun. Plus: Is Rincewind Trans? OUR CURRENT RANKING: 1. Mort 2. Equal Rites 3. Sourcery 4. The Light Fantastic 5.
