 ... Discworld subseries that focuses on the City watch and its Commander Vimes, who has gone up in the world since he married Lady Sybil Ramkin. I'm not going into the details because I don't want to spoil it, but much to Vimes' displeasure, he and Lady Sybil leave the ciy behind to tour the Ramkin country estates and introduce their son to the joys of the countryside. He encounteres some interesting characters even before the plot truly begins, for example, there's a wonderful parody of Victoriania and Jane Austin early on, a...more

In the physical books the text is clearly printed and legible, and although initial formatting problems were reported with the ebook version, these should now have been resolved.

Instead, I thank his very own Church of the Small Gods that Snuff turned out to be a cracker. Here's what the story is about, and also what I thought of it. Snuff is book 39 of the Discworld series. For those that don't know, the Disc in question is a disc shaped planet that travels through space shouldered by four giant elephants, who each stand on the back of a space travelling turtle ...  Read the complete review
