"That's a funny thing," said Om. "Winners never talk about glorious victories. That's because they're the ones who see what the battlefield looks like afterwards. It's only the losers who have glorious victories."

As always, Pratchett never fails to surprise me in the best way possible. Not only was  this humourous and full of irony at organised religion, it also surprised me with some of its turns. Definitely enjoyed every minute reading it, plus some of the worldbuilding that it entailed. Furthermore, some of the puns in the names of this were just killer-level, and I adored them.
