Pyramids
by Terry Pratchett
This one was fun, but also a bit cringe, depending on the joke. It feels very Eurocentric in its look at cultures it clearly has no internet in understanding, aside from a pun or other play. And sometimes that’s fine… but other times it strays into outright problematic territory, probably a product of when it was written and obviously not willful intent. But yeah… does feel like punching down sometimes.
Otherwise, it’s perfectly serviceable. I enjoyed the riddle of the Sphinx part and the weirdness of the pyramids. Does feel like it’s on shaky ground when it’s not outright British culture being the thing under the lens.
