Synopsis
Eric calls up a demon to grant him three wishes - but what he gets is the Discworld's most incompetent wizard...
Eric is the Discworld's only demonology hacker. The trouble is, he's not very good at it. All he wants is the usual three wishes: to be immortal, rule the world and have the most beautiful woman fall madly in love with him. The usual stuff.
But what he gets is Rincewind, the Disc's most incompetent wizard, and Rincewind's Luggage (the world's most dangerous travel accessory) into the bargain.
Terry Pratchett's hilarious take on the Faust legend stars many of the Discworld's most popular characters in an outrageous adventure that will leave Eric wishing once more - this time, quite fervently, that he'd never been born.

Paperback: 7" x 4½". Condition: Near Fine: Small signs of wear. Cover Art: Josh Kirby (illustrator). 2000 Edition. © 1990: 9th in the 'Discworld' series of books. 1st printing of 2000 edition:- Synopsis:- Eric is the Discworld's only demonology hacker. Pity he's not very good at it. All he wants is his three wishes granted. Nothing fancy - to be immortal, rule the world, have the most beautiful woman in the world fall madly in love with him, the usual stuff. But instead of a tractable demon, he calls up Rincewind, probably the most incompetent wizard in the universe, and the extremely intractable and hostile form of travel accessory known as the Luggage. With them on his side, Eric's in for a ride through space and time that is bound to make him wish (quite fervently) again - this time that he'd never been born:- Review(s): "He is screamingly funny. He is wise. He has style" - Daily Telegraph / "To say that Terry Pratchett is popular is a bit like saying the Arctic Circle is a bit nippy" - Sunday Express:- (original cost £4.99).
