Summary: I rate it 5 stars because it's the most I'm allowed...
Review: Simply stated, this is one of Pratchett's best. He brilliantly skewers politics, warmongering, racism, engineering, time management, navigational terms, police work, and foreign customs, for a start. He then manages to poke fun at (as opposed to ridiculing) humans, werewolves, dwarves, trolls, gnomes, Curious Squid, and the odd orangutang. His treatment of the temperature-sensitive intelligence of Corporal Detritus is well done, and the habit he gives of Commander Vimes returning to his old habits as a street copper even in the middle of ceremonial events had me rolling on the floor.The demonic organizer and the temporal slip-up was a very nice touch... although the reeling off of the appointments in the alternative final defense (which I shall skip for those who haven't read this yet - I envy you people! <grin>) I found honestly to be as chilling as anything Stephen King ever wrote. I don't believe I've ever read a bad book of his. Some may have been better than others, but not one of them have I put down and said, "My God, why did I read this?" Pratchett writes with a compassionate eye to his characters, keeping them comical without making them ridiculous. These are books that I'll still be re-reading 20 years from now, and I'll wager I'll still find something new to laugh at each time.

Summary: A Thought-Provoking Yet Side-Splitting Adventure
Review: How to summarize it? I have always been a Terry Pratchett fan since I first started reading his stuff, and this one really continues the tradition. This is one of the best books about the Ankh-Morpork City Watch to date. It is also an insightful look at the reasons we as humans react to people different from us. I cracked up when Colon and Nobby were forced into joining the secret mission. I was thrilled when Vimes arrested his superiors. I also saw the clever commentary on the cold war. Veni, vidi, vici!

Summary: Brilliant as usual!
Review: Once again, Terry Pratchett shows how to write good books. This novel, as is usual in the Ankh-Morpork City Watch novels in the Discworld series, manages to be both hilariously funny and thought-proking, with some of Commander Vimes' lines in particular worth hours of moral debate. Although, those who wish to spend hours in moral debate deserve to be doing something better with their time anyway. Like reading this book.

Summary: Top Stuff
Review: He just gets better and better, doesn't he? There aren't many people who are willing to take the piss out of themselves and their cultures so readily but when they do it's totally worth it and absolutely hilarious.
Rating:
Summary: A very very very very very good book
Review: Like all Pratchetts, there are several dozen sub-threads in this book that you probably won't get unless you re-re-read it several times. Every time you read it, it simply gets better and better. Quite simply: Very good :)

Summary: great book about the trials of war and vindaloo
Review: Jingo is a great book which tipifies the discworld series. it is the story of passion, Carrot and a werewolf with a shiny coat. It is also the story of a machine which submerges in a marine environment which is called the machine-that-sumerges- in -a-marine environmnt. Basically, as any discworld fan can see, it is typical discworld luniness with extreme inteligence and bravado I highly recomend this book to anly discworld fan or any to anyone with an imagination and a love for science fiction.

Summary: Like Maxwell Coffee...Good to the Last Drop
Review: Excellent book. It's bursting at the seams with laughter, but the puns don't jump up and try to snare you, you find them yourself. If you like the discworld novels, you might try Piers Anthony's Xanth novels. The two are similar and yet totally different

Summary: Smooth, Terry Prathett at his very best , as allways .
Review: Good, smooth flow of the story made it easy to read . Pratchett only gets better as time goes by. Carrot and his disguise realy hits a mark with all honest souled people . The sharp , realistic view of humanity out to start a war is a masterpiece in it self . Commander Vimes has more a life of his own than ever before , His wife Sybil also grows up as a carracter .
