It is rare and splendid event when an author is elevated from the underground into the international literary establishment.

"May you live in interesting times" is the worst thing one can wish on a citizen of Discworld--especially on the distinctly unmagical sorcerer Rincewind, who has had far too much perilous excitement in his life.
