Title: Deepest and Darkest
Product review: If you are unfamiliar with Pratchett, you will be happier starting earlier in the series with something lighter, like "Colour of Magic." "Thief of Time" is ambitious -- admirable for someone on his 25th book of a series -- and, for Pratchett, dark (it all comes out OK in the end, though). Pratchett satirizes Zen, mathematics ( he may have written the only characterin all of literature based on a mathematical bifurcation), death and Death, kung-fu movies, accountants and a dozen more. If you've read a couple of the series, you'll understand this one. It does start a bit slowly, but Pratchett has a lot of setting up to do before all hell breaks loose with the Five Horsemen of the Apocalypse. Yes, five. There is just *a lot* in this book. No wizards, though.
