Herring-and-banana pizza for everyone!
Ponder Stibbons was one of those unfortunate people cursed with the belief that if only he found out enough things about the universe it would all, somehow, make sense. The goal is the Theory of Everything, but Ponder would settle for the Theory of Something and, late at night, when Hex appeared to be sulking, he despaired of even a Theory of Anything.

Herring-and-banana pizza for everyone!
On a world supported on the back of a giant turtle (sex unknown), a gleeful, explosive, wickedly eccentric expedition sets out. There's and avaricious but inept wizard, a naive tourist whose luggage moves on hundreds of dear little legs, dragons who only exist if you believe in them, and of course The Edge of the planet... And the rest, they say, is history.
The aim of this Discworld blog is to spread knowledge, tidbits, and other facts about this amazing* universe. So, if you're in for the ride, hop on!**
* Amazing is to be understood as very imaginative, sometimes crazy, mostly astonishing, and certainly full of surprise.***
** Disclaimer: no damage caused by literally hopping on your chosen machine of likeness to the Hex will be refunded.
*** Not including Ankh-Morpork. At that point, words give up and run away screaming.
