Book Review "The Color of Magic"

Have you ever read "The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy" and thought "This is pretty funny. I should totally do this except instead of aliens and spaceships I'll use wizards and barbarians."? No? Well thats probably good because Terry Pratchett all ready thought of it and then did it in what has become like 40 books or something in his Discworld series. Its certainly not like some generic "I wish I was the Lord of the Rings" fantasy novel and its a quick read; perfect for reading on the bus. I really like "The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy" and this was ok too. Not as funny, but some good parts. Not sure 40 books worth of good stuff, but maybe I'll pick up another one sometime.
