Terry Pratchett

4.31 AVERAGE


Quirky and fun, Pratchett's British humor and alternate-universe sensibility make this an engaging read. Anyone who has ever encountered small children in regard to reading bedtime stories will appreciate the awesome power of six o'clock and "Where's My Cow?"

Pleasant but forgettable Pratchett.

As amazing as I remember it being. Pterry is one of those authors that just holds up really well to rereads. The best part is catching things you didn't before. I liked all of the allusions to the other books, like with the stamps and the Ankh-Morpork Times.

The Near-Vimes Experience part had me giggling. I reread via audiobook and I have to say that Stephen Briggs' performance was amazing, specially at that one part. If you've read the book you know what part I'm talking about ;) I was looking forward to it pretty much since the beginning simply because I knew it would be amazing and I was not wrong. Highly, highly recommend the audiobook.

I think this might be my favourite discworld novel so far!!! It s so funny / comedic and i really loved ALL the side characters. The plot kept me at the edge of my seat and bit by bit it unravelled with references to the title and other sections of the book such as the beginning. It's a complete package!!

Classic affair for this series. Doesn’t add anything too substantial, no great mystery or subversion, but still an entertaining read that doesn’t overstay its welcome.
