\nFinished reading Terry Pratchett’s latest paperback tonight. It was another solid entry into the series without being outstanding.<\/p>\n

Having revolutionised the Post Office, Moist von Lipwig finds himself in charge of the Royal Bank and Mint alongside the chairman of the bank – a dog called Mr Fusspot.<\/p>\n

The best thing about this book – along with any other book where he has a prominent role – is Lord Vetinari. I love the way the other characters tie themselves in knots around him as they try to figure out what his schemes are and inevitably get it wrong. There is some great moments in the first third of the book as Lipwig tries to avoid having anything to do with the running of the bank.<\/p>\n

The next book, coming out in September, is going to be a non-Discworld children’s book called Nation. I was hoping for another Tiffany Aching book – A Hat Full of Sky is one of my favourite Pratchett books – but it will be interesting to see what he comes up with as it’s been a while since he wrote a non-Discworld book.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
