Reviewing Terry Pratchett in 2024 seems redundant. You have either read at least one of his books, or you know what to expect. And this book is no exception. 

Tropes are turned on their head, the genre is lovingly skewered, it is all a lot of fun. But Terry Pratchett never shies away from horrible or evil characters, and some awful things can happen. 

The most important thing to mention is that I listened to the audiobook this time. Indira Varma is perfect for this series, much better than the old voice actor who was unbearable.
