Men At Arms is an excellent follow up to Guards! Guards! bringing back our lovable Night Watch cast with a few new additions, which soon become valued characters. 

This book is full of the quirkiness and comical touches that we expect of the Discworld, but with an added heart and thrilling plot which means I would heartily recommend it to anyone.

Not my favourite Discworld book BUT I absolutely love the City Watch series and I'm always excited when one pops up!

Debatint-me entre posar-li 4 o 5 estreles. Realment es un llibre que disposa una sèrie d’esdeveniments i personatges molt originals per a ser una fantasia en clau d’humor, amb satira no només dels clàssics de fantasia, sinó també de problemes de la societat actual. La narrativa a voltes costa de seguir, amb capítols intercalats de morts de personatges que no conexies de formes extremadament estranyes, pero rellevants per a la resolució del misteri del llibre. El problema es en recordar-te de quins dels mini-capítols intercalats entre els de narrativa principal son rellevants i quins no, cosa que fa que alguns dels girs dramàtics perden força cap al final del llibre. Igual es que em falta context del Discworld. En qualsevol cas, el llibre et deixa amb ganes de més, i seguiré llegint aventures de la guàrdia de la ciutat amb ànsia.
