a must for all Pratchett fans * Mansfield Chad *
As the well-places plot unravels in Pratchett's inimitable style, it goes without saying that everything gets very funny.
Like Tiffany, Pratchett has always known that "laughter helps things slide into the thinking".
Pratchett's book is suffused with an awareness of the thankless exhaustion which awaits people in the caring professions. * Express & Star City Final (Wolverhampton West Midlands) *
