    In this episode of our Discworld Deep Dive podcast, Varsha, Susana and I explore Eric (also known as Faust Eric), one of Terry Pratchett’s most unique and shortest Discworld novels.

    • How Eric fits into the Rincewind series of Discworld.

    • Parody, satire, and Pratchett’s take on Faust.

    • Key themes: temptation, bureaucracy, and the absurdity of power.

    • Why Eric is one of the shortest but most memorable Discworld novels.

    • Our favorite jokes, moments, and character insights.
