I’ve read exactly one average-sized handful of Discworld books at this point and so far this is my favorite.

There are not many books I did not finish reading but unfortunately this one is one of them. I loved every Pratchett book in the series so far and even tho some of them had worse parts I still enjoyed them greatly in the end. With this book I had problems since beginning and they lasted until somewhere in the middle of the story where I just gave up. It makes me sad but also it happens sometimes and I am still open to rereading of this book in the future. But now I am just going to continue the series and enjoy other books from the master writer Terry Pratchett.

Side note: for sure it may be just that the background and point of plot was not meant for me so I am not judging the book and just giving my current opinion.

78/100

Camels, higher dimensional maths, handmaidens, gods and of course DEATH. Just what I needed for light relief during lockdown.

Rounding up from a 2.5
I mean, it was an okay book, but it was kind of forgettable when compared with the rest of Discworld. The impression I'm left with is overwhelmingly "eh"
