Description

Welcome to Guards! Guards!, the eighth book in Terry Pratchett’s legendary Discworld series. Long believed extinct, a superb specimen of draco nobilis ("noble dragon" for those who don't understand italics) has appeared in Discworld's greatest city. Not only does this unwelcome visitor have a nasty habit of charbroiling everything in its path, in rather short order it is crowned King (it is a noble dragon, after all...). How did it get there? How is the Unique and Supreme Lodge of the Elucidated Brethren of the Ebon Night involved? Can the Ankh-Morpork City Watch restore order – and the Patrician of Ankh-Morpork to power? Magic, mayhem, and a marauding dragon...who could ask for anything more?

His novels have been widely adapted for stage and screen, and he was the winner of multiple prizes, including the Carnegie Medal.

Humor, with it's Sleeves Rolled-up

Sir Terry Pratchett has done it again.
Another gripping Ankh-Morpork tale involving one dragon (deadly), one cop (cynical) and the usual Disc-load of satire (sizzling).
If ever there was a book to raise your spirit from the depths of gloom, here it is. All in all, a brilliant continuation of the Discworld saga.
