Sign up for LibraryThing to find out whether you'll like this book. No current Talk conversations about this book. Brilliant humour throughout the entire book, wonderfully human characters, and a plot that keeps the reader gripped throughout the whole story. One of Pratchett's best and easily the Discworld book I'd recommend to new readers of the series. ( ) Quin gust de llibre, traducció i colecció. No es podia fer un millor homenatge a Pratchett que amb aquesta edició en català. L’humor on point, els personatges molt carismatics i unes trames excelents que a més et deixen la mel a la boca per les següents entregues. Guardies! Guardies! és defenitivament la millor manera d’entrar a llegir Pratchett. Tinc moltes ganes de veure més de la vida del Vimes i companyia. Fora del que és el llibre (i sense haver llegit l’original per comprar) crec que la traducció es excelent i té una fluidessa que no m’esperava. Mai Més estan aconseguint que llegeixi molt més català del que va aconseguir mai l’escola. This is the introduction of Vimes and the Watch. A dragon starts appearing in Ankh Morpork and Vimes, Colon, Nobby, and Carrot are on the case. Where does it come from and where does it go? This is a fun story, exciting and full of adventure. I especially love the exploration of the University Library and L-space. Just enough romance to spice things up a tetch. Is contained inHas the adaptationIs abridged in
Welcome to Guards! Guards!, the eighth book in Terry Pratchett's legendary Discworld series. Long believed extinct, a superb specimen of draco nobilis ('noble dragon' for those who don't understand italics) has appeared in Discworld's greatest city. Not only does this unwelcome visitor have a nasty habit of charbroiling everything in its path, in rather short order it is crowned King (it is a noble dragon, after all...). How did it get there? How is the Unique and Supreme Lodge of the Elucidated Brethren of the Ebon Night involved? Can the Ankh-Morpork City Watch restore order - and the Patrician of Ankh-Morpork to power? Magic, mayhem, and a marauding dragon...who could ask for anything more? No library descriptions found.
