If you haven’t read the Discworld series, you might be thinking this is sure to be a pretty short article, if the whole series follows a simple chronological order. Overall, however, the books more or less follow the chronological order in which they were written and published.

Everyone has their own opinion and their own gods, of every shape and size-all fighting for faith, followers, and a place at the top. Religion is a competitive business in the Discworld.

Until one day he hears the voice of a god calling his name. Like Brutha, a simple lad who only wants to tend his melon patch. Where the strangest things happen to the nicest people.
