Pyramids by Terry Pratchett
3.75
adventurous funny lighthearted mysterious medium-paced
Plot or Character Driven: A mix
Strong character development: Yes
Loveable characters: Yes
Diverse cast of characters: Yes
Flaws of characters a main focus: Yes

Teppic is a great character, and Pratchett is in his element here with nerdy wordplay and his trademark playground of religion, philosophy, physics, belief and reality. Not in my top tier of Discworld books, but a strong entry.

Highlights are the genius camel, the pyramid maker's sons, and the gathering of undead kings.
