Review Summaries
"Teppic, Prince of the Sun Kingdom and heir to the throne, has spent his teenage years training to be an assassin in Ankh-Morpork. He is called home to ascend after his father dies, and must cope with his kingdom's high priest, who has his own ideas about how things should be done. There's also a small problem with a pyramid. Funny, wonderful, everything you want from Terry Pratchett."
Ivy, Resident Terry Pratchett Scholar
