Another banger from Pratchett in the Discworld. Brutha and Om are a great duo. Vorbis is a fantastic villain. The philosophers are fun too as well as the other Omnians. DEATH has great cameos as usual.

I really like the idea that a god needs to believe in humans as much as the humans believe in it. It’s almost Christian. I also really liked the ending for the same reason. My personal viewpoint definitely pushes my own interpretations when I read it, but I got a few Christian themes out of this one.
