marycel 's review for:
Guards! Guards!
by Terry Pratchett
Terry Pratchett is a balm for my soul. Not only is he really, really funny, but he also knows when to gently transition the humor into something serious to make a solid point about real life. In a way, it's painful to see how easily adaptable this story is to the present day, being that it's about how humans will act against their own best interests and put someone terrible in charge, but it's incredible to see the parallels from this book written in 1989.
I lost my brother's copy of Guards! Guards! when I was in high school, and I hadn't finished reading it, so this also felt like closing a big circle from a different life. I hadn't realized how much I'd missed the Discworld universe. It's a good place to be immersed for a while.
