Eric: A Discworld Novel Mass market paperbound - 2013
by Terry Pratchett
Discworld's only demonology hacker, Eric, is about to make life very difficult for the rest of Ankh-Morpork's denizens. This would-be Faust is very bad--at his work, that is. Eric wants to fulfill three wishes: to live forever, to be master of the universe, and to have a hot babe. Instead of conjuring a demon, Eric brings forth a wizard whose incompetence is matched only by Eric's.
Reader reviews for Eric: A Discworld Novel
Review summary
Reviewers described Eric as a brisk, minor Discworld outing: witty and familiar, with enjoyable Hell episodes and parodic detours, but slight in plot and impact. Rincewind’s return—along with the Luggage—pleased some and irked others, and the book was widely seen as uneven and weaker than standouts like Guards! Guards!, resonating most with committed series readers.
Readers say this book is:

From the publisher
From the rear cover
Discworld's only demonology hacker, Eric, is about to make life very difficult for the rest of Ankh-Morpork's denizens. This would-be Faust is very bad . . . at his work, that is.All he wants is to fulfill three little wishes: to live forever, to be master of the universe, and to have a stylin' hot babe.
But Eric isn't even good at getting his own way. Instead of a powerful demon, he conjures, well, Rincewind, a wizard whose incompetence is matched only by Eric's. And as if that wasn't bad enough, that lovable travel accessory the Luggage has arrived, too. Accompanied by his new best friends, there's only one thing Eric wishes now--that he'd never been born!
