I'm probably not doing this book justice with my rating, but as much as I think the writing is brilliant, it dragged for me badly. I started it thinking it would work for my werewolf square in bingo, and by the time I realised it definitely wasn't (Agula the werewolf is only mentioned and never ap...

Arch-swindler Moist Van Lipwig never believed his confidence crimes were hanging offenses - until he found himself with a noose tightly around his neck, dropping through a tra...

I just got to the bit where she threatened a drunk with serious bodily harm after he tried to get her to kiss him. Here's Moist and Miss Dearheart talking about it afterwards: "He was only a drunk," Moist ventured. "Yes, men say that sort of thing," said Miss Dearheart.
I've never been a sports fan, unless I were actually doing the sport in question, but I found a discworld adaptation of a sport completely apropo and more than a little snide. Fortunately for those of us who don't care too much about sports in-general, the reoccurring characters more than make up fo...

Finally a chance to see Lancre on a map and be able to follow the lines, see where everyone lives. The guide was fun too, with lots of info about Lancre. Really recommend...
