When a wizardly experiment goes adrift, the wizards of Unseen Universityfind themselves with a pocket universe on their hands: Roundworld,where neither magic nor common sense seems to stand a chance againstlogic.The Universe, of course, is our own. And Roundworld isEarth. As the wizards watch their accidental creation grow, we followthe story of our universe from the primal singularity of the Big Bang tothe internet and beyond.Through this original Terry Pratchettstory (with intervening chapters from Cohen and Stewart) we discover howpuny and insignificant individual lives are against a cosmic backdropof creation and disaster. Yet, paradoxically, we see how the richness ofa universe based on rules, has led to a complex world and at least onespecies that tried to get a grip of what was going on.
