It s a triumphant effort --The Independent on Sunday

"It's a triumphant effort"--The Independent on Sunday

"In short, this is as busy and as daft as any other Discworld yarn, which means it is the quintessence of daft. Nobody writes fantasy funnier than Pratchett."--"Booklist"

"At its heart, this is an intelligent, cheeky love letter to football, its fans and the unifying power of sports.--"Publishers Weekly"

"This account of Unseen University's entry into the world of soccer (or, as they occasionally call it, "foot-the-ball") pushes past the usual conventions of satire to offer equal parts absurdist philosophy and heartwarming romance....A witty addition to the long-running fantasy series"--"Kirkus Reviews"

"Thirty-seven books in and ... Discworld is still going strong...and doing so with undimmed, triumphant exuberance. "--"The Guardian"

Reseña del editor:

While Archchancellor Ridcully, at the request of benevolent tyrant Lord Ventinari, scrambles to compose a capable football team from the unathletic rabble at Ankh-Morpork's Unseen University, handsome yet lazy Trev falls for dim yet pretty kitchen maid Juliet, and hopes his friend Nutt's friendship with the cook, Glenda, will help him win romance. By a best-selling author. 150,000 first printing.
