This is quite a book!

Perhaps it's not as packed with philosophical exploration, but it's a very solid work with a coherent storyline and cute plot twists.

This book is never unfun or draggy. Certainly one of my favorite books in Discworld series so far at the reread time. Not lastly because of a great character design of Victor.
