Another in my Discworld reread and I have to say one of the best - im surprised at myself that I haven’t read this book more in the past as I have done with several other discworld books. 

As usual, very funny, but also surprisingly violent - at least more viscerally so than some other TP books - and exciting throughout. Some good, interesting commentary on the role of women in wars.
