Terry Pratchett 那些极具叛逆戏谑意味的小说在英国长期稳居畅销榜首,使他在讽刺戏仿文学殿堂中赢得了与 Mark Twain、Kurt Vonnegut、Douglas Adams 和 Carl Hiaasen 齐名的崇高地位。在 Equal Rites 中,一位垂死的巫师试图将自己的力量传给刚刚降生的第八个儿子的第八个儿子。然而,当人们发现这个儿子实际上是个女儿时,却为时已晚……

就是想安利大家多读读 Pratchett。:) 我上周又买了两本小说,结果不到 24 小时就忍不住看完了其中一本(《Equal Rites》)。
Just wanted to recommend reading more Pratchett. :) I bought a couple more novels last week and couldn't help but finish one (Equal Rites) less than twenty four hours later.
……前几本书比较怪,可能会劝退你。问题 2:对你来说哪种听起来更有意思——看超飒的女巫、超飒的警察,还是超飒的商人?对应的入门作分别是《Equal Rites》、《Guards! Guards!》和《The Truth》。
…the first few books are weird and will put you off. Question 2: What sounds more fun to you, reading about Badass Witches, Badass Policemen or Badass Businessmen? Your respective starting points are Equal Rites, Guards! Guards! and The Truth.
……你打算读完整套系列的话。但他前面几本还没完全进入状态,而且里面有很多子系列可以读。单本的话,我最喜欢的是《Small Gods》。你也可以读《Equal Rites》或《Mort》。另一个非常棒的剧情线是从《Guards! Guards!》开始的。
…you're planning to read the whole series. But he didn't hit his stride for a few books, and there are many sub-series to read. For a good stand alone, my favorite is Small Gods. You could also read Equal Rites or Mort. Another great story arc starts with Guards! Guards!
……穿着拖鞋基本上啥正事不干……就算干了,通常也会把事情搞得一团糟。Granny Weatherwax(一个女巫)绝对是 Pratchett 笔下塑造得最好的角色之一。(她在《Equal Rites》里露过面,然后在《Wyrd Sisters》里再次登场,那本有点像麦克白的翻写……后来还在好几本书里出现过。)
…slippers who don't really do anything at all...and when they do, they usually screw something up pretty badly. Granny Weatherwax (a witch) is easily one of Pratchett's best characters. (She shows up in Equal Rites, and then again in Wyrd Sisters, which is a sort of retelling of Macbeth...and in several books since.)
初中毕业后我就没怎么看书了,《Equal Rites》是我重拾阅读后的第一本 Terry Pratchett。写得太棒了,我边看边笑个不停。
Equal Rites was my first Terry Pratchett book after not reading any since middle school. It was great and I laughed a lot while reading it
