This was a perfect palate cleanser after two different audiobooks that disappointed me. I always enjoy Pratchett, and Stephen Briggs (who narrates all of Pratchett's audiobooks) makes me smile every time. So that made things all much better.If you haven't read Terry Pratchett before (audio or text...
Another solid Discworld book. Not one of my absolute favourites but a good read.This one concerns Vimes visiting Uberwald and getting involved in a crime and political machinations of a power struggle between Dwarves, Werewolves and Vampires.It suffers slightly from Pratchett's tendency to start lot...
Another fantastic story, as usual taking a look at class, sex and culture differences and how people, for better or for worse, handle them.

Co-incidentally, so has the replica scone that was in the dwarf bread museum in ...

I think I have problem with man that everybody loves. I realized this problem as I was reading T...
I'd have given him five stars for the riff on The Cherry Orchard alone. Vampires, werewolves, politics, fat mining. Pratchett manages to write a really fun book that is also a mystery as well as a keen satire on emigrants and the old country. personal copy
