The Last Continent

There is big trouble at the Unseen University, Ankh-Morpork's lone institute of higher learning. And the one person who can remedy the situation is . . . Rincewind, not only most inept magic-doer the UU ever produced but currently stranded on the unfinished down-under continent of Fourecks. No worries though, the UU faculty is taking steps to bring Rincewind back, traveling magically to his general vicinity . . . several thousands of years too early. Meanwhile, the wizard in question has big troubles of his own, thanks to a pushy mystical kangaroo trickster named Scrappy and a mob of Fourecksians determined to make Rincewind a fabled folk hero (after they hang him, of course). But no worries, things could turn out for the best—if he somehow makes it rain for the first time ever . . . and if a group of time-traveling academics can teach an inquisitive god a thing or two about evolution and (gulp!) sex.
