Feet of Clay (Discworld, #19; City Watch, #3)Feet of Clay by Terry Pratchett
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

Re-Read 10/5/24:

This is something like my third time reading this book.
Obviously, I have found something worthwhile in reading them.

This time, it's really Cheery Littlebottom that did it for me. So, she isn't a novelty candle--but not for lack of trying. :)

Great stuff. Period.


Original Review:

I really enjoy the City Watch novels because every character is a hoot. Vimes is off the hooch, Nobby is about to be crowned king, and there are truly mysterious murders going on. And attempted murders. Of Vetinari, no less.

This is one of those super-solid Discworld novels. Pratchett has his thing going on, full tilt. Discrimination is explored on a much broader basis than ever before and just imagine... GOLEMS! So everywhere that NO ONE NOTICES them. Solution?

Revolution. Of a sort. If you're going to demand your freedom, make damn sure you ask for a receipt. :)
