Read. This. Now.
You don’t have read any other Terry Pratchett/Discworld books first (and this would actually be a wonderful starting point) and it’s sooooo good, I physically cannot explain it without spoiling the whole thing so yeah…super surprising and laugh out loud funny. Absolutely delightful 10/10
