I liked the characterization of Carrot and Vimes a lot. Very interesting to see Carrot in charge, and how differently he acted compared to when he first joined the Watch. Note that this book is about inter-species conflict and city politics. If you aren't prepared for satire about racism that was definitely written by someone without firsthand experience, you won't like this book much. That said, my favorite character arc was between Detritus and Cuddy.
