Also fans of the recent Les Miserables movie will find things to enjoy here, as there's a lot of barricade-building and revolution going on. In hot pursuit of deranged killer, Carcer, Sam Vimes and his foe are catapulted back in time 30 years to a somewhat different Ankh-Morpork. You'll never look at a lilac (or a bottle of ginger ale) the same way again.Recommended for teens, adults, humor fans, and fantasy fans.
It may not be the best introduction to Pratchett's excellent Discworld (start with Mort, Equal Rites, The Color of Magic, or Guards Guards!), but it's one of the best he's written. Okay, not sorry.)This book is simultaneously a complex story of time-travel, a portrait of a man quite literally looking back on his youth, and a slyly self-aware fantasy adventure. Now he's a duke, his wife is about to have their first child, and he misses the "bad old days." When a freak thunderstorm brings him and a murderous criminal back in time, he gets a chance to relive those days-but everything he does is changing history, and he might not ever get back.to the future. Sam Vimes' life has changed a lot since he was a plain old copper in the Night Watch.
