  So... What's up this time in Anhk-Morpork? Well, to start with, the multiracial Watch is now a definite issue... Golems are up and about and something is making them fret... There's a King's heir in the Watch, but he's not who you're thinking... Someone is poisoning Vetinari, but not enough to kill him...

  A tangle of treads that Vimes will try to follow, ducking assasination and conspirations attempts.
  ENJOY!

  A Discworld novel. Samuel Vimes is investigating over some murders and the (mysteryously) continuous poisoning of Vetinari. No clue till the end. Other lives develop in the middle: Angua the werewolf and her troubled story with Carrot (both in the Watch), Chery Littlebottom that decides to out her female nature although beared dwarf, Nobby who might be noble, golems' right to be free... Deep and hilarious in the same time.

  It is my assertion that there is no such thing as a bad Pratchett. I've reluctantly awarded some of his books four stars since there are some which I prefer less than others, but I'd still rather read Pratchett than almost anyone else.

  It is my assertion that there is no such thing as a bad Pratchett. I've reluctantly awarded some of his books four stars since there are some which I prefer less than others, but I'd still rather read Pratchett than almost anyone else.

  Terry Pratchett is, in my opinion, one of the,(if not THE), best modern writers. And Feet of Clay is one of my absolute favorite books of all time. Blending seamlessly the fantasy realm with philosophy on the concept of being, this book is a powerhouse of profundity which also elicits a surprising share of belly laughs. It's a story of murder and religion. A taut detective story, a touching portrait of a being struggling for independent will against what he was created to be - it's an amazing work of fiction which takes my breath away with its verve and simplicity every time I re-read it.
