ABOUT THE ORIGINAL BOOK

Pyramids by Terry Pratchett tells the story of Teppic, a newly crowned pharaoh of the ancient kingdom of Djelibeybi, who returns home after his education in a foreign land. He finds himself thrust into a world steeped in age-old rituals, peculiar gods, and the overwhelming legacy of pyramid building. As Teppic grapples with the expectations of his people and the bizarre traditions of his ancestors, he begins to question the very foundations of his kingdom. The narrative explores themes of tradition versus change, the burden of leadership, and the absurd nature of deeply entrenched beliefs, all set against the backdrop of a kingdom where pyramids hold a mysterious and powerful significance.
