Wavered between 3 and 4 for this one. The prominence of the orangutan librarian and swamp dragons pushed it over the edge for me. There were a few places where this book dragged, but overall I liked the wit, the characters in the Night Watch, and the city and people of Ankh Morpork.

Enjoyable and funny as always. I will say, this one could’ve been maybe 50 pages shorter, as there were bits that just dragged without adding too much humor.
