I thoroughly enjoyed this one — steam trains, dwarves, terrorism, all handled deftly by Moist von Lipwig. Great characters, including the train Iron Girder.

TheSpineView I totally forgot to read this one.🤦‍♀️ I had planned to read in the first few days off April. 🐿🧠 2w
julesG @TheSpineView Don't worry. I'm the same. 🫣🫣 Glad I have the audiobook and only about 2 more hours to go. 2w

BarbaraJean I actually finished this one on time! To refer back to my earlier comments on Terry's use of chapters: I was sad he reverted back to no chapters here! But I did really enjoy it, chapters or not. I loved seeing Moist discover new sides to himself, and the interplay with Adora was fantastic, even if there wasn't a whole lot of it. I also liked Dick Simnel and the way Harry and Moist kind of mentor him. And the reveal about Vetinari at the end! 2w
julesG @BarbaraJean Still wondering where I read about the chapters and what. My mind is a sponge when it comes to soaking up information, but a bank vault when I try to get the information out. I know that chapters were discussed pre writing the Tiffany Aching books. Guess I'll remember it when I least expect it and don't have anything with me to take notes. 😁 1w
BarbaraJean @julesG Haha--yeah, these days my recall of where I read something or how I know something is a bit diminished. 😆 1w
kwmg40 I really enjoyed this one, partly because I love travelling on trains and find the history of train travel interesting, and partly because of the subplot involving the dwarves, which provided a few surprises! 1w

“I know we have what might be called an unconventional marriage, what with our jobs and the pressure of work and so on, but I wouldn't be doing my wifely duty if I didn't ask you whether you have been firkydoodling with fast and loose women? No pressure. Answer in your own time.”

😂 “Firkydoodling” is hereby added to my vocabulary.

#OokBOokClub

julesG I love the "no pressure." part of this so much. I've only read this book so far. This time I'll listen to the audiobook and am looking forward to how the dialogue plays out. 2w

When one‘s mostly reformed con artist needs a new challenge, it is remarkable timing that the invention of the steam engine & pushback from a violent minority all happen at the same time.

I think this one, more than any other so far, has made me mourn the stories we could have gotten. Pratchett‘s depiction of a small, angry, vocal group driven by fear to upend all they don‘t understand, it hits harder this time around. 🌕🌕🌕🌕🌑

🌟 🌟 🌟 🌟 🌟This was my #DoubleSpin for March, and it's one of the best books I've read this year! I love the Discworld series, and Rincewind is one of my favorite characters. #OokBOokClub #2025OffMyShelf
