Synopsis
Only Terry Pratchett could make ethnic conflict funny, and that’s exactly what he does in this satiric fantasy novel, an addition to the long-running Discworld series. He also sends up art criticism and the hoopla surrounding the book THE DA VINCI CODE. As the anniversary of a legendary dwarf/troll conflict looms, Commander Sir Samuel Vimes of the Ankh-Morpork City Watch must deal with the rising tensions between the two races, exacerbated by the inflammatory street sermons of a dwarf holy man, Grag Hamcrusher. Matters seem unlikely to improve when Hamcrusher is murdered, presumably by a troll.
