‘Anything you do in the past changes the future. The tiniest little actions have huge consequences. You might tread on an ant now and it might entirely prevent someone from being born in the future.’
There’s nothing like the issue of evolution to get under the skin of academics. Even if their field of expertise is magic rather than biology. With the best and most interfering minds of Unseen University somehow left in charge at a critical evolutionary turning point, Rincewind, inept wizard and reluctant hero, has found himself magically stranded on the Discworld’s last continent with the Luggage. It’s hot. It’s dry, and There was this thing once called The Wet, which no one believes in any more. Practically everything that’s not poisonous is venomous. But it’s the best bloody place in the world, all right? And in a few days, it will die. The only thing standing between the last continent and wind-blown doom is a wizard who can’t even spell wizard.
Still . . .
no worries, eh?’
The Last Continent is the fifth book in the Wizards series and twenty-second in the Discworld canon, (but you can read the Discworld novels in any order!).
