Thirteen-year-old Eric and Rincewood the wizard have many adventures trying to escape from the equally horrifying and ludicrous beings and places of the magical Dungeon Dimension.
Wherein: Eric learns to be careful what you wish for and to read the fine print of the wishing rules. Rincewind appears to possibly have -some- magic skills and definitely has great "run away" skills. The Luggage continues to be a strong candidate for my favorite Discworld character (it's a tight race with the Librarian).
Content warning Mild Spoilers
While still a Discworld novel and still an enjoyable read, Eric has never been one of my favorites. It does, however, have one or two excellent points to make about the world and its people and how what we wish for isn't always what we'll get.
