Discworld at its finest.
The new characters introduced are all fantastic, William is instantly lovable, and Sacharrisa and Otto are fantastic counterparts.
The villains of the book are again fantastic. Mr Tulip is an exceptional henchman.
Major bonus points for the inclusion of characters from The Watch, which is my favourite series in Discworld, along with my favourite characters.
Sir TP dives deep into the world of news journalism here, obviously with great knowledge from his past of working in the industry. The book asks many important questions such as who is the news for? What is news? Does the news actually help people? Who does/should control the news?
Absolutely 5 stars from me, and highly recommended. Up there with the best of Discworld.
