Absolute genius of a book. Pratchett’s writing is proof that humour and satire does not necessarily negate serious aspects like depth and emotion. When executed right, like an intelligent friend of mine rightfully said- only makes you reflect better.

Humorous, but not too critical, exploration of the human condition and religion. Made to be re-read.  

• “Fear is a strange soil. It grows obedience like corn, which grow in straight lines to make weeding easier. But sometimes it grows the potatoes of defiance, which flourish underground.” 
• "The figures looked more or less human. And they were engaged in religion. You could tell by the knives (it's not murder if you do it for a god).” 
•  “Thou shalt not submit thy god to market forces.”
