No Isla Fisher
Wish I hadn't seen this
I quite liked the original film and hoped this would be more of the same. It's a shame Isla Fisher didn't return. Some of the scenes are ridiculous even for a "magic" film, some plot lines don't make a lot of sense. Overall it felt like a quick lower budget sequel.

The magic of Homecoming is that it belongs more to the John Hughes cinematic universe than the Avengers’. It cleverly references other Marvel films and even iconic scenes from previous Spider-jams, and right when it needs to

Immense lore
Well thought out magic system
Good start to a great series
The start to an excellent series if you can sink the time into the 14 books. As this is the first of 14 books it is a little slow to get going however Robert Jordan's writing style keeps me intrigued even when going through seemingly dry lore and setup.

Absolutely bonkers
This is possibly one of the craziest adventure books I've ever read, and I wouldn't expect any less of a Discworld book. It's bonkers, funny and such an entertaining read. Rincewind has really grown on me too as a character, although I don't feel Twoflower's eccentricities were highlighted quite as much in this book as in The Colour of Magic. Such a fun read.

Quite a complicated magic system to get your head round, but it isn't done to death (it is hinted at early but is only really used in earnest quite a lot later in the book). There are aspects of other parts of the cosmere hinted at here (the gods being similar to those in elantris, using material items for powers). A good standalone contribution to the universe.

Perfect balance between magic and CSI
This book was a bit of an emotional rollercoaster. The author was amazing at getting you to go through all the feelings of the main character PC Grant throughout the book. It took me two days to get through this book.
I thoroughly enjoyed the book and am itching to go and buy the next in the series.

Has a extremely rich lore
There are many formats that help the game avoid being stale. Though most formats are pay to win, there are a few that tend to avoid this such as commander, draft, or sealed.

Yet again, this second part to The Color of Magic was absolutely brilliant. I marvel at Pratchett's ability to make me smile each and every page, while still giving forth characters that I can feel attached to. Marked as one of my favorite books, I will no doubt return to this one even as I make my way through all the novels of the Discworld.
