That was deligthful, the Night Watch with its chief Sam Vimes is (as of many others) my favourite thread of the Disc World books.</p> <p>It has been a long time since I read the last book of the series, I really looked forward to continue with this novel. Making a little break was maybe not a bad decision, though, the ever brillant homour of Pratchett is so likable for me, but it also becomes somewhat predictable (especilly Vimes' raw sarcasm and Vetinari's deep sarcasm, oh how I love it). I even sometimes catch myself being immodest and thinking what snappy answer from Vimes comes next.</p>
