"The Librarian rolled his eyes. Homo sapiens? You could keep it."
I cannot express how enamoured I am by this story, but I can only tell you that it is a great place to start if you want to get into Pratchett. This was hilarious, fast-paced, full of lovable characters, plot twists I never saw coming and an unforgettable atmosphere of a mystery parody. Also, the amount of characters that seem to be neurodivergent in this...Bonus because a fat charaacter was my favourite character and she was described as stunning and majestic.
