Tobie

As a long-time Pratchett fan, I loved the way this book kept three or for seperate plotlines going simultaneously, as well as giving us another look at some old favorites like Angua, Carrot, Vimes, Cherry, etc. The plot twists and mystery going on behind the humor and characters kept the book well-paced and exciting, and the scenes with Colon were hilarious. Definitely a Pratchett classic
