_The Last Continent:_ And today's phrase is "No Worries!"

Rated a Very Helpful Review by the Epinions community
Oct 2, 2013
Pros: Wickedly funny, we really get to see how wizards react around women. Ponder Stibbons.
Cons: None really. I was having too much fun.

Summary: As I have been reading along in the Discworld series, my partner has the slightly annoying habit of hinting at what is coming up, or that I will enjoy this or that book. And when he recommended The Last Continent, I knew that I would enjoy reading it; ... read more

A hilarious satire of Austrailia

Rated a Somewhat Helpful Review by the Epinions community
Aug 7, 2012
Pros: It's Discworld, and Discworld is hilarious.
Cons: There aren't any.

Summary: Ahh, Discworld. From incompetent wizards to a socially awkward Death, Discworld manages to make sense while not making sense, to make the most outlandish characters and situations seem almost plausible, to mock the real world with an imaginary ... read more

"No worries mate, its a corker".

Rated a Very Helpful Review by the Epinions community
Dec 21, 2004
Pros: Fast-paced read, great one liners.
Cons: Previous knowledge of Discworld although not essential, definitely an advantage.

Summary: A pun on, and inspired by Bill Bryson's "The Lost Continent, "The Last Continent" is Terry Pratchett's 22nd Discworld novel and I class it as one of his best. For the unaware among you Pratchett's Discworld is a strange blend of fantasy, ... read more

No Worries!

Rated a Very Helpful Review by the Epinions community
Apr 9, 2003
Pros: Good size, very good plot, plenty of laughs
Cons: Not the variety of characters you normally get, some of them are rather one-dimensional

Summary: The Last Continent (a strange land which is called "EcksEcksEcksEcks") is one of the longer Discworld novels, and that can never be a bad thing. It centres on ... er... The Last Continent, which was made thousands and years ago... only Rincewind (an ... read more

Magic Downunder

Rated a Somewhat Helpful Review by the Epinions community
Oct 17, 2002
Pros: All the wit wisdom and insanity of vintage Pratchett
Cons: None that I can see unless you have an aversion to kangaroos

Summary: The last continent is just what you'd expect from Terry Pratchett - master of the literary footnote. Its all there the usual cast of wizards, dwarves, gods, odd animals and Sheilas in drag. In this book Pratchett brings Australia into the ... read more

G'day Mate!

Rated a Very Helpful Review by the Epinions community
Apr 18, 2002
Pros: Great jokes, characters, situations. You'll laugh out loud at some of them
Cons: Nothing much.

Summary: The Last Continent is another Discworld book, a wonderful series of books by Terry Pratchett that takes place on a Disc, on the backs of four elephants that are standing on a cosmic turtle that�s hurtling through space. This one features another ... read more

Good book, but not one of Pratchett's best

Rated a Very Helpful Review by the Epinions community
Jul 3, 2008
Pros: Rincewind, the Luggage, and quite a few giggles
Cons: Rincewind and the Luggage don't receive the care they deserve

Summary: As an avid Discworld fan, I have never reviewed a Discworld book. This is mainly because I didn't feel that I could give a fair review. Last night I finished "The Last Continent" and although it was entertaining, I have to say that it was not one of the ... read more

No Worries, She'll Be All Right

Rated a Very Helpful Review by the Epinions community
Jan 8, 2001
Pros: Funny & light, good for a laugh
Cons: Probably not the best title to begin reading Discworld novels on.

Summary: Take a vacation packed with adventure, excitement, exotic cuisine and all the other things that people crave (until they actually experience them) without the inconvenience of losing your luggage, getting sunburn and forgetting where the car has been ... read more
