The book begins with a group of nomes who decide to abandon their Outside habitat in favor of something safer. They hitch a ride on one of the trucks that they have watched and end up inside the Store (Arnold Bros. (est 1905)). What ensues is basically a parody of the early Church, and it is delightful. I need to obtain a copy of Diggers, the next in the trilogy. Perhaps I'll luck out on my trip to Half Price Books this morning.
This will fulfill my "P" author in the A-Z challenge (the completion of which is looking quite grim...)

I know I could get into Pratchett's books, there are just so many I'm afraid to start!
Yes, this is a problem! I want to read them all, but I know I will never have time...
