'IT WAS SO MUCH EASIER TO BLAME IT ON THEM. IT WAS BLEAKLY DEPRESSING TO THINK THAT THEY WERE
US.'War is brewing on the Discworld.An island has appeared from the ocean depths right in the
middle of the sea which separates the proud empires of Klatch and Ankh-Morpork. Of course no
one would dream of starting a war with the neighbours without a perfectly good reason . . .
such as a 'strategic' piece of old rock for instance.But when a Klatchian Prince is almost
assassinated peace talks break down and violent nationalism begins to spread. Ankh-Morpork
prepares to fight. Only thing is they don't have an army. Or much in the way of
weapons.Commander Sam Vimes and the 'officially disbanded' City Watch get caught up in a deadly
political game where the enemy appears to be on both sides and no one will listen to reason.And
if they don't stop this absurd war no one will . . .'Generous amusing and the ideal boarding
point for those who have never visited Discworld' Sunday TelegraphJingo is the fourth book in
the City Watch series but you can read the Discworld novels in any order.
