Small Gods
Book • 2016
In this thirteenth Discworld novel, Terry Pratchett satirizes religion, philosophy, and the role of religion in political life.
The story is set in the theocratic land of Omnia, where the Great God Om, reduced to the form of a tortoise, must rely on the novice Brutha to restore his divine powers.
Brutha, with his remarkable memory and simple faith, navigates the complexities of the Church and its oppressive practices, ultimately leading to a reformation that brings peace and prosperity to Omnia.
The graphic novel adaptation features new artwork by Ray Friesen.
