Line 7:
''A world, and a mirror of worlds.''
The Discworld, a flat planet carried by four elephants standing on [[Turtle Island|the back of a gigantic space-turtle]], is the venue for [[Knight Fever|Sir]] [[Terry Pratchett]]'s long running fantasy series.
The first few books were a straightforward parody of [[Heroic Fantasy]] tropes, but later books have subverted, played with, and [[Lampshade Hanging|hung lampshades on]] practically every trope on this site, in every genre, and many not yet covered, as well as parodying (and in some cases, [[Deconstruction|deconstructing]]) many well known films, books, and TV series. The humour ranges from simple wordplay to wry reflections on the absurdities of life.
