		The main character of Pyramids is Teppic, prince of the tiny kingdom of Djelibeybi (a pun on Jelly baby, a confection common in the United Kingdom).
		Djelibeybi is the Discworld counterpart to Ancient Egypt.

		Pyramids (The Book of Going Forth) is Terry Pratchett's 7th Discworld novel, and continues the trend of changing the series from a satire of the fantasy genre into a distorted mirror of our own world.
		Nevertheless, Pyramids is still a fine novel - just not a hilarious one, and the fact that this is a completely standalone novel (in fact this is sequentially the first Discworld novel that has not yet been sequelised by the return of it's lead characters) makes this perfect for newcomers as well.
		Pyramids, you see, slow down time, and there are so many pyramids in Djelibeybi now that new time is continually sucked in by them and released nightly in flares.

		Pyramids (the book of going forth) is the seventh Discworld novel - and the most outrageously funny to date.
		The Great Pyramid being built for his father's mummy is much too big, and eventually it causes the temporal dislocation of Djelibeybi from the face of the Discworld.
		`Pyramids' was the first of his books that I read and even though I have now read most of them it remains, in my opinion, one of the best.

		Pyramids is an excellent addition to the Discworld series and, like just about every other volume in the series is both hilariously funny and thought provoking.
		Teppic is the heir to the throne of Djelibeybi.
		The rest of the story follows Teppic's adventures as the power of the new pyramid built to honor his father causes havoc with the time-space continuum and which in turn threatens to engulf the region in a disastrous war.

		In this sequel, the Discworld is moving towards a seemingly in- evitable collision with a malevolent red star, and it has only one possible saviour.
		And his very existence brings the Discworld, which is of course flat and rides through space on the back of an enormous turtle, to the very verge of all-out thaumaturgical war*.

		Pyramids falls into the brilliant category - it fails genius only because the characters herein aren't among the most engaging of the Discworld population.
		Pyramids features, perhaps not surprisingly, Pyramids, embalmers going crazy, camels (lots of camels - including You Bastard (all the camels are named after what people call them!), the Disc's greatest mathematician!), an ill-fated love affair, and many laughs.
		A familiarity with Discworld is not really required for this one, although it may help slightly.

	Discworld: best adventure game series ever? - Adventure Classic Gaming - ACG - Adventure Games, Interactive Fiction ...
		Discworld is the creation of Pratchett, an English writer who nowadays lives behind a keyboard in Wiltshire, England.
		The character Lewton in the Discworld Noir is similar to Vimes in Prachett’s books, as both are at a time hopeless alcoholics and worked as guards in the City Watch.
		Discworld Noir feels more true to Pratchett’s Discworld than the other games in the Discworld series, even though there are less familiar characters and locations.

	CFAQs - Discworld Noir
		Discworld Noir was the third Discworld game produced by London-based developer Perfect Entertainment, who sadly are no longer with us.
		Terry Pratchett, the creator of the Discworld series of books said that he didn't want another adventure like the first two, and he didn't want a game with Rincewind as the central character.
		Some of the descriptive dialogue explaining some of the elements of the Discworld setting which had been borrowed from the books were also altered and expanded, ensuring that all the material in the final game was original.

		A new land surfaces, and Discworld goes to war, with armies of sardines, warriors, fishermen, squid, and at least one very camp follower.

	The Annotated Pratchett File v9.0 - Pyramids
		Pyramids is split into four 'Books', a structure that gives it a unique position amongst the otherwise chapterless Discworld novels (The Colour of Magic doesn't really count -- it's a collection of linked novellas, not a single novel with chapters or sections).
		Pyramids is of course riddled with religious references, most of which are too obvious or too vague to warrant inclusion here.
		This metaphor ties in neatly with the quantum aspects of the Pyramids: rubber sheets distorted by balls are one popular way of visualising Einstein's general theory of relativity.

		The difference between this and many of the other Discworld novels is the fact that the characters are exclusively in Pyramids and no other book.
		Perhaps the difficulty that some readers have is getting to know characters that have not previously been introduced and are not developed further after the dust jacket of Pyramids has been closed.
		However, having read all of Pratchetts Discworld novels several times (sad, I know) there is no doubt that the characters in Pyramids stand above the rest in the way that they are written.

	SF REVIEWS.NET: Pyramids / Terry Pratchett
		With Pyramids, the seventh Discworld opus, Terry Pratchett's unstoppable creative genius unleashes some of the most cosmic comic mayhem the series had seen up to that point.
		The story reaches an early climax of sorts when the construction of the massive pyramid causes such a vast buildup of magic that the entire nation of Djelibaybi ends up on the business end of a bizarre cataclysm.
		Overall, Pyramids is a funny entry in this enduringly popular series, though it doesn't quite become the epic that Pratchett is both parodying and aspiring towards.

		This is my recommendation on the "best way" to read Terry Pratchett's Discworld series.
		The Colour of Magic is the first book, but probably not the best to start with (it's funny, but not a good representative of Discworld).
		Pratchett writes sub-series based on different groups of characters, and the characters do develop in later books, so either read all of the books in order, or each subseries in order.
