 Review
profusely illustrated in full colour by josh kirby, with some full-page pictures, some smaller but nevertheless crossing from one page to the page opposite, and some smaller illustrations wholly within a smaller part of the one page, with text "flowed" to one side or another of them, or sometimes wholly above or below them.

the blurb on the back of the book/dust-jacket gives a good indication of what to expect - except terry gives a rincewind's-eye-view of the "adventures" eric gets them into, i.e. dangers that any sane person would run away from at top speed - not approach eagerly (aka "run towards with a total disregard for elemental (or elementary) matters of safety") - and rincewind would sooner start running from now!

a tour-de-force in illustration of this discworld short novel by josh kirby:
don't settle for the text-only p/b or mmpb unless you have no alternative.
