tibega 's review for:

Thud! by Terry Pratchett
5.0
funny inspiring mysterious medium-paced
Plot or Character Driven: Character
Strong character development: Yes
Loveable characters: Yes
Diverse cast of characters: Yes
Flaws of characters a main focus: Yes

Pratchett at his best, well worth a read, or re-read
I think what makes this, along with the other later watch books, so compelling is that they mark a shift in Pratchett's writing, away from his roots in parody and satire, to just straight up political commentary, though still wrapped up in comedy and fantasy
