This is sort of "Going Postal Revisited" - but it doesn't suffer from that. Instead, you think, "how is he going to pull THIS one off?" Another grand adventure, another commentary on a part of our real world, and the usual Pratchett wit and characterization.

Very fun, very light read that served as a neat little follow up to going postal, although I found this one to be less dense with less plot points. Pretty funny, It's a decent followup book but not as good as the first one. I don't think you'll enjoy this if you don't like going postal though (which is the first book in this arc of discworld books) and this one can't be read as a stand alone. It felt a little bit like an epilouge story for Moist and Adora. I do like these characters though so it was nice to spend time with them again.

I needed a book recommended by someone under the age of 25 for one of my book challenges, so I asked the members of the teen D&D club I facilitate. Those loveable nerds suggested the Discworld books, and specifically this one after I told them I enjoyed Going Postal so much.
