And that's a real problem for Captain Vimes of the City Watch, who must tramp the mean streets of the naked city searching for a seventy-foot-long fire-breathing dragon which, he believes, can help him with his enquiries. In a city thrown in turmoil by magic, charcoal biscuits, secret societies and mad lady dragon breeders, he's just looking for the facts.' ***'I'm beginning to think that Terry Pratchett is the best humorist this country has seen since P. G. Wodehouse -- less coarse than Tom Sharpe, less cynical than Douglas Adams, simply a pure joy". - David Pringle, White Dwarf (Quote and general review quote taken from the front flap of the dustwrapper) ***A second impression of the true first edition, published just a month after the first impression, in its original attractive wraparound colour-illustrated dustwrapper. A very nice early printing of the eighth book in the series of Discworld novels.
