![]() It’s short, and… there’s nothing really essential in it either. Eric was originally an illustrated novel, but my copy (like almost all the copies you’ll find these days) is minus its illustrations, leaving it just abnormally short (and something of an unwanted sibling in the family, its name often omitted or bracketed in early lists of Discworld novels). Divide that short length up in a very episodic fashion, and there’s not a lot of substance left. ![]() At only a few hundred pages, it’s easily the shortest Discworld novel so far, and not much more than half the length of Pyramids. ![]() To be honest, there’s not a great deal to say about Eric. (for those who missed the announcement, I’ve skipped Guards! Guards! on the grounds of not being able to find the damn thing, though I’m sure it must be around here somewhere…) ![]()
