Sci-Fi & Speculative

Small Gods

by Terry Pratchett · Discworld series

When the great god Om manifests as a small, powerless tortoise, he discovers his vast religion rests entirely on the faith of one simple gardener, Brutha. As the Omnian Church spirals toward fanaticism and inquisition, god and believer embark on a journey that interrogates the nature of belief, institutional religion, and divine responsibility. Pratchett's sharpest satire targets fundamentalism while affirming the power of individual conscience.
