Terry does Vampires. Magrat has had a child, and called her Esme after Granny Weatherwax. Granny Weatherwax has a sense of something wrong but it has her ruffled and she can sense something that makes her wary. It's not one of his best but it's a fun read.

Plus the whole Omnian question, and the christening. A delight, but by no means a simple one. Is there another writer who makes me feel so kindly tow...
