설명
In a realm where gods are as real as the mortals who worship them, the story unfolds in a blend of humor and wisdom that fans have come to love. A small, once-mighty deity finds himself stripped of followers, reduced to a mere icon of faith struggling to regain his former glory. As the world around him spirals into chaos, this forgotten god must confront the absurdity of belief, the nature of true power, and the resilience of the human spirit.
The graphic novel brings the vibrant Discworld to life through striking illustrations that capture the essence of Terry Pratchett's satirical storytelling. The characters are rich and varied, from the earnest believers to the misguided zealots, each representation adding depth to the exploration of faith and understanding. It deftly navigates philosophical themes with a touch of whimsy, juxtaposing the divine with the ridiculous.
As the journey unfolds, readers are drawn into a narrative that challenges the very nature of belief itself. They witness a thoughtful examination of how the constructs of faith shape societies, identities, and destinies, all while reveling in the unique humor that defines Pratchett's work. This collaboration between Friesen and Pratchett captures the spirit of the original novels while offering a fresh, visual perspective on a timeless tale.
