Pyramids

Author: Terry Pratchett

In this hilarious Discworld adventure, young Teppic inherits the throne of an ancient kingdom obsessed with building pyramids. Struggling with royal duties and a stubborn high priest, he grapples with tradition and progress. Pratchett’s wit shines as he pokes fun at ancient Egypt, modern politics, and everything in between. A rollicking tale of camels, assassins, and mathematics gone mad that’ll leave you chuckling long after the last page.

Time is a drug. Too much of it kills you.
