David McK (3372 KP) rated Pyramids: Discworld Novel 7 in Books

Jun 11, 2023

7th novel in Terry Pratchett's ongoing Discworld series (and the first individual novel), this was quite possibly my introduction to that series - I can't remember having read any before this one (though I have read them all since).

As this is set quite early on, a lot of the now familiar characters were yet to be introduced and expanded upon. Indeed, you can even see the beginnings of what would become "Small Gods" in the pages of this book.

Wow, just wow.

Lois Lowry has weaved yet another wonderful story. This book takes the characters from "The Giver," "Gathering Blue, and "Messenger" and formed a truly amazing book. This novel offers the reader answers to many questions that have been left unanswered.

There were points during this book that dragged but all in all it was fantastic. I am pleasantly surprised with the novel. I never realized how much this series has meant to me until I reached the last 90 pages. I didn't want to read the rest because then the novel would be over.

All in all I highly recommend this book to anyone who has wondered what happened to Jonas and Gabe.

I might have to reread the whole series again.

Kudos

My Thoughts: This is a truly entertaining novel. It's genuinely fun and engaging. The author has done a marvelous job of bringing the past and future together to make a charming and humorous storyline. The characters are well developed and easy to relate to. Claire is a down to earth young woman trying to make a living writing historical novels; just an average girl whose life is changed forever one night when she puts on her grandmother's shawl. This novel was hard to put down, the plot is fast-paced and keeps the reader entertained.

A historical novel is full of humor and suspense with many twists in the plot that will keep the reader wondering what will happen next. A truly enjoyable read and highly recommended.
