A seemingly routine day in the life of City Watch commander Sam Vimes is abruptly …
While some see Night Watch as the high point of Terry Pratchett's #Discworld series, for me it's Thud. I can't exactly articulate why it appeals to me so much, but its insights into different cultures and different interpretations of beliefs really spoke to me.
Reaper Man was the first Discworld novel I ever read, and one of the ones I have read the most often, but I haven't read it since either my mother or Sir Pterry died.
It was good to read it again, after having known the grief of losing mom. Comforting. Such insight into death, and Death, and what it means to know that life has to come to an end. This remains one of my favorite Discworld Novels, and it is unquestionably one of the most profound.
But Terry always delivered even the hard lessons with a nice dose of laughter.
