The eighth son of an eighth son is a wizard but the eighth son of a wizard is a wizard squared a source of power, a Sourcerer. When a young Sourcerer turns up at the Unseen University it falls to Rincewind, the Discs worst wizard, to save the world along with the Luggage and the daughter of the Discs greatest hero.
While I do think it is worth a low four out of five, `Sourcery' has never been one of my favourite Discworld books and it is probably one of the weakest of the Wizards series. I don't know what it is I dislike about the book as the characters are interesting and while the plot is a little light it is nonetheless as funny as any of the early Discworld books. As well as this the final confrontation with the Sourcerer is also very good.
One of the things I dislike about the book is that the Luggage, while still having some great scenes, does seem to be underused as if Terry couldn't think of what to do with it in some places. Other than this and the usual slight difference in style of the early books to the superior books later in the series, I cannot quite put my figure on why I dislike the book.
Despite my dislike of `Sourcery' I would still give it four stars as it is nonetheless entertaining and worth reading by any Discworld fan.
