Beschreibung

Football has come to the ancient city of Ankh-Morpork. And now, the wizards of Unseen University must win a football match, without using magic, so they're in the mood for trying everything else.
The prospect of the Big Match draws in a street urchin with a wonderful talent for kicking a tin can, a maker of jolly good pies, a dim but beautiful young woman, who might just turn out to be the greatest fashion model there has ever been, and the mysterious Mr Nutt (and no one knows anything much about Mr Nutt, not even Mr Nutt, which worries him, too). As the match approaches, four lives are entangled and changed for ever.
Because the thing about football - the important thing about football - is that it is not just about football.
Here we go! Here we go! Here we go!

For me, this is the best book of the series in a while, its characters are so loveable and some of the side characters like Pepe are tremendously funny. Mr Nutt especially is a wonderful character, when he starts philosiphising, for example about famous spoons, the book becomes hilarious. At first glance it looks like a book about football, but whilst reading it, I began to realise that it's really about tolerance and friendship. Terry Pratchett tells us this tale of tolerance in his own, unique style, whithout ever getting melodramatic or lecturing. "Unseen Academicals" has once again shown me why Terry Pratchett is my favourite author.

I've learned more about the football and humanity than I think I knew before I read this. What a lovely book.
