Reading Terry Pratchett is like eating the perfect fruit cake: textured, complex, filled with bursts of intense flavour that nevertheless catch you by surprise, easy to eat, satisfying but still leaving you wanting more. Here's an example of one of the surprises. Mr Hopkins, a museum curator, ha...

Series: Discworld #19 I don’t usually think to reread this one, but as I’ve been finding with these older Discworld books once Pratchett hit his stride, it’s really quite good, with the golems and Dorfl and Rogers, the bulls. Rogers is a bit part throw away character who thinks he’s two bulls beca...

Feet of Clay is the third book in the Watch subseries of Discworld. It’s also the Guards book that I’ve enjoyed the most so far. In fact, it may even have given my previous favorite Discworld book, Wyrd Sisters, some competition. I was worried at first that this book would rehash old ground with...

I'm embarrassed to say that this was my first taste of Terry Pratchett, curiosity tweaked by a swathe of obituaries lamenting his loss. And just one book into an impressive catalogue of work, I can see why the author's fans are so numerous. One of the Discworld series, the story centres on the Ankh-...

Finished in the wee hours this AM. Also slightly puzzled as I thought I'd made note of starting this one. I'm going to have to start making an effort to read these in some semblance of order. Most of the time, it doesn't bother me, but I usually don't read them so close together either. This one ca...

Poison, Golem, and the Watch (Oh My!) Once again events in Ankh-Morpork necessitate that the City Watch buckle down to save the day, so how will the city survive after “Feet of Clay”? Terry Pratchett’s third book of the Guards sequence, sees the very integrated (sans vampires) tackle a rampaging ...

A part of me, upon learning of Sir Terry's death, thought that it was only fitting to make the next book that I read a Discworld novel; which turned out to be this one. I won't say anything about Sir Terry here as I have already written See review

I started to warm up to the Watch books with this one. Sam started to be more competent and I liked the way Pratchett used the golem tradition.
