THUD

Just finished Terry Pratchett's Thud in 3 days. It was released last year I think, and it is the latest in the Discworld series. What is it like? If you've read one discworld novel, you'll know. It pretty much sticks to the format, has a couple of killer lines and ideas, I somehow feel it would work much better as a radio play, with funny voices. The storyline stars Sam Vimes and the Watch, which has been featured in his last couple of books. Trolls and dwarves usually get along by ignoring each other, but they start coming to blows because of increasing nationalism, or species-ism. With echos of the da vinci code, secret societies, coyote ugly.
