Small Gods

''You should do things because they''re right. Not because gods say so. They might say something different another time.''

Religion is a competitive business in the Discworld. Everyone has their own opinion and their own gods, of every shape and size - all fighting for faith, followers, and a place at the top.

So when the great god Om accidentally manifests himself as a lowly tortoise, stripped of all divine power, it''s clear he''s become less important than he realised.

In such instances, you need an acolyte, and fast. Enter Brutha, the Chosen One - or at least the only One available. He wants peace, justice and love - but that''s hard to achieve in a world where religion means power, and corruption reigns supreme . . .
