took too long to get into the good bits.. i nearly put it down without finishing it because of that (but i didn't have anything else to read..).. from about the middle of the book, it's good stuff - not side-achingly funny, but not boring either.    hide

A little more action packed than most other Discworld novels I've read. Was very hard for me to put it down... even when the clock struck three in the morning and I had to go to work at nine. Pratchett's writing as always shines through again. Can't wait to read the next one.   hide

Not the best, but still pretty darn funny. The clacks idea was great. :)

not as good as I remember him, Pratchett's early-to-middle period works may prove to be his best.

The best of his work and I'm sad to say I'm not quite sure why I adore it so much.
