This early Discworld novel introduces the character Sam Vimes and the rest of the City Watch, although it's clear that author Terry Pratchett was still figuring out who they would be at this point. Here the Watch investigates the sudden appearance of a dragon in their city, and the political satire is heavy-handed but effective as the citizens are unwilling to speak out against the deadly creature even as it declares itself king and demands human sacrifices. It's not really an instant classic, but it's a solid foundation for this set of characters.
