Sci-Fi & Speculative

Eric

by Terry Pratchett · Discworld series

A hapless demonology hacker named Eric summons what he thinks is a demon to grant three wishes—immortality, universal mastery, and a beautiful companion—but gets the wizard Rincewind instead. Pratchett's satirical romp through Hell, the dawn of time, and the Tezuman empire parodies Faust with trademark wit. Brief and gleefully irreverent, it's a comic tour through mythology and hubris.
