An artifact more badass than a lightsaber
5 stelle
The first flight on the rod scene, to me, is more epic than Luke getting the lightsaber.
Amazing rhyme of the two storylines of the main characters, a counter-position between the cozy and contained village life and dramatic path to the city, as well as events that followed, genius driven by dark conspiracy, ah. So much of this is absolutely badass.
Half a point nudged off for Pratchett's favorite idea of putting enough machinae around to pull dei out of those by their ears.
