Pickpick

A very enjoyable installment in the #Discworld series, mainly because of the characters featured in this story -- Angua, Sybil and the wonderful Gaspode!

"Lot of cowards, the Klatchians," said Colon. "The moment they taste a bit of cold steel they're legging it away over the sand."
Sergeant Colon had had a broad education. He'd been to the School of My Dad Always Said, the College of It Stands to Reason, and was now a postgraduate student at the University of What Some Bloke In the Pub Told Me.

"And of course they're all mad for fighting," said Colon…. ⤵️

BarbaraJean (Cont‘d)
“Vicious buggers with all those curvy swords of theirs."
"You mean, like . . . they viciously attack you while cowardly running away after tasting cold steel?" said Nobby, who sometimes had a treacherously good memory for detail.

??? Good job, Nobby…

“It was so much easier to blame it on Them. It was bleakly depressing to think that They were Us. If it was Them, then nothing was anyone's fault. If it was Us, what did that make Me? After all, I'm one of Us. I must be. I've certainly never thought of myself as one of Them. *No one* ever thinks of themselves as one of Them. We‘re always one of Us. It's Them that do the bad things.”

willaful I enjoyed seeing more about the relationships here, which had previously seemed a little one-sided. 1mo

julesG @willaful I agree. It was more balanced 1mo
willaful I'm curious about what the revisions were. I'm not sure if the edition I read was revised or not 1mo
julesG @willaful Erm?! ??? I only picked the "revised edition" entry from the database. But now I need to find out too. 1mo
BarbaraJean @willaful Yes! I really liked getting to know Sybil (and her past) better, and Angua's family was... illuminating (yikes). That scene where Sybil breaks into song is 💯 4w
kwmg40 I enjoyed this one, mainly because of the characters that had larger roles in this book -- Angua, Sybil and the wonderful Gaspode! 3w
