7. Discworld by Terry Pratchett 《磁盘世界》——特里.布莱切特

Terry Pratchett's Discworld might not have the gravitas of other fantasy works, but it makes our list by virtue of being pure fun. Pratchett is a rare thing in the fantasy niche - an honestly good writer who masterfully parodies the genre while still creating an internally consistent world that is interesting and enjoyable to read. If you've never read a Discworld book but feel interested I'd recommend getting cracking - the series is up to 37 books as of the end of 2009.

特里.布莱切特的《磁盘世界》也许不像其他魔幻作品那么严肃，它能够上榜正式因为其纯粹的好玩儿。布莱切特属魔幻界的奇才，一边终成恪守体裁格式，一边创造一个内在如一的奇妙世界，让人手不释卷。如果你尚未读过《磁盘世界》但对此很感兴趣，那么我建议你现在开始——在09年底这个系列的书已经出到了第37本。
