5.0

My first Discworld novel and it certainly won't be my last! This was a fun, funny, and insightful book with an amazing cast. Especially the protagonist, Moist von Lipwig, who goes from con man to respected government official by staying a con man at heart. He's a refreshingly down to earth protagonist who reacts quite normally to positively wild situations, even within a fantasy novel and his asides on the nature of government seem quite relevant even today.

Fun and clever, it was a great introduction to this world and one I highly recommend.
