"Maybe the best way to build a brand new world is to peel some spuds in this one."
I was worried I wouldn't like this one but it's become one of my favourite Discworld books. Time travel is usually not a trope that I think is done well, but my god was it done well here! I absolutely loved this glance at Ankh-Morpork history as well as what felt like a deeper look at Sam Vimes himself, as unlike most Pratchett books which tend to switch character perspective a lot, this one focuses almost entirely on Vimes.
As always with Pratchett I love the balance of humour, social commentary, and pure love for these characters.
