    Although not up to par with his previous work, this lesser Pratchett elicits its share of laughs. The story of young women joining the Discworld army (an age-old practice in the annals of history) is engaging and delightful, yet lacks the typical Pratchett insightfulness which we fans have grown to love and expect. Worth a read, but will never be one of my favorites.

The Monstrous Regiment is made up of a vampire, a troll, Igor, a collection of misfits and a young woman who discovers that a pair of socks shoved down her pants is a good way to get ahead in a man's army.

Ideal for young adults, this is Stephen Briggs' brilliant stage adaptation of one of Terry Pratchett's best-selling Discworld novels.

Terry Pratchett is one of the most popular authors writing today. Stephen Briggs is his chosen stage adapter.
