a little turtle talking to him telepathically.
But one simple lad, a hopeless little initiate named Brutha, does believe in Om, and so it is with some surprise that Brutha first encounters Om in his melon patch. Om's religion exists to perpetuate itself, with its rituals and vicious punishments and wars presided over by the psychotic Deacon Vorbis. The story opens in the city of Omnia, whose chief god, Om, has been reduced to a pitiful existence in the form of a turtle because, despite an enormous organized religion centered around his worship, no one really believes in him any more. At first it seems a straightforward satire of religion then as it progresses, Pratchett balances his satire with some truly epic (by Discworld standards, of course - there's always one foot stuck in the silliness door) storytelling that manages to make worthy commentary on belief and the never-ending conflict between good and evil all without being, well, preachy about it. Tweets by Gods is an extraordinary novel, a thing of sheer beauty. Book cover artwork is copyrighted by its respective artist and/or publisher.
