Ab die Post: Ein Scheibenwelt-Roman | Terry Pratchett
1433 posts | 200 read | 3 reading | 85 to read
Der Gauner Feucht von Lipwig wird dazu verdonnert, die heruntergekommene Post der Scheibenwelt wieder auf Vordermann zu bringen, denn im alten Postamt von Ankh-Morpork ruht die Arbeit seit vielen Jahren. Feucht ist dabei so erfolgreich, dass er sich den Zorn der Konkurrenz vom Groen Strang der Klacker zuzieht. Ein ffentlicher Wettstreit soll die Entscheidung bringen: Postkutsche gegen Klacker wer kann eine Nachricht schneller in das zweitausend Meilen entfernte Gennua bringen?

I know I recently reread Snuff and Thud!, but honestly THIS is currently in contention for my favourite Discworld book. It's so wonderful to reread! Like an adventure that doesn't require a road trip, the sneaky thinking, the big ideas, the almost accidentally redemptive quality, the darkly and slyly and then broadly humourous, the smidgen of the fantastical that doesn't overwhelm with world building, that is basically just enchanting background,

Robotswithpersonality 2/3 but somehow how it all ends up being an open acknowledgement of a cynical worldview, of the unethical elements in a corrupt city, while also satisfying the faith of hope through people who choose to help others. Has a few touching/dark moments, but the overall feeling is not just fun, but triumphant. Pratchett's magic. 🥹 10mo
Robotswithpersonality 3/3 I will definitely be rereading the other Moist von Lipwig books (Making Money, Raising Steam) next. 😁

According to my excel sheet there are still some people who have not posted that they sent their boxes out. I may have missed your post. If I did not like or comment on that post, comment below. If you haven't sent your package out yet you are living on the edge (you are welcome for Aerosmith living in your head right now). Post when you do send it out. And Harpy IS judging you. She judged me when I sent mine out too.

This was my third Discworld novel and it cemented my love for Pratchett. This one works well as a stand alone. In it, con man Moist von Lipwig is saved from hanging by Lord Ventenari and subjected to an even worse punishment: he is tasked with bringing the moribund Ankh-Morpork post office back to life. Throw in Golem‘s rights, a little romance, and a lot of humor and voila! Pratchett deftly skewers corporate greed and much more.

Vansa I LOVED this book.Practically reads as historical fiction for how the postal system is set up. 2y
vivastory Moist von Lippert. What a name! 2y
Ruthiella @Vansa I loved how pin collecting was a thing until stamps took it over. 😆 Let‘s face it, I loved everything about this book. 2y
