Beskrivning

Teppic, a young man molded by the prestigious Assassin's Guild in Ankh-Morpork, finds himself unprepared for the monumental task that fate has thrust upon him. While he has been trained in the art of stealth and cunning, being called upon to rule an entire kingdom is an entirely different challenge. This unexpected duty leads him on a journey filled with absurdity and enlightening experiences as he struggles to adjust to a life of leadership and responsibility.

In his quest to fulfill his role as the new pharaoh, Teppic grapples with the complexities of his family's legacy, including the weight of tradition and the expectations of his subjects. The political landscape is fraught with intrigue, and Teppic's unorthodox upbringing complicates matters further as he seeks to implement his vision in a society wedded to the past.

As he navigates the intricacies of power, Teppic is also faced with the challenge of monumental architecture—the very pyramids that serve as tombs for the dead. These awe-inspiring structures become symbolic of the burdens he carries, ushering in both philosophical quandaries and humorous escapades. With an eccentric cast of characters surrounding him, the story unfolds with a mix of wit and wisdom, showcasing Pratchett's unique narrative style.

Amidst the chaos, Teppic learns that true rulership isn't merely about decrees and dominion, but rather understanding the hearts and minds of the people one leads. Through a blend of adventure and comedy, he uncovers deeper insights into life, death, and everything that connects them, ultimately revealing the intrinsic absurdity of existence itself.
