TheSpineView Poor Rincewind he can never caught a break. As usual, the subtle humor was really well done. I thought the political undertones were especially good in this story. I still think Rincewind in some ways reminds me of Inspector Clousreau from The Pink Panther. 4mo

julesG No worries! No worries! 🤣🤣 I really liked to see the faculty of UU struggling outside their hallowed halls. And they actually cared for the librarian. 😍 4mo
kwmg40 This was a fun one. Having spent a good number of years in academia, I love the scenes involving the UU faculty. Pratchett is great at showing the ridiculousness of academic life. One gripe I have about the Rincewind books is that there are so few female characters. 4mo
julesG @kwmg40 Equal Rites comes to mind. 😉 The UU/Rincewind books definitely have a lack of female characters. 4mo
kwmg40 @JulesG Yes, the Witches series does balance things out! 4mo
BarbaraJean @julesG @kwmg40 I think I liked this one better than the previous ones because of the half faculty half Rincewind balance! I enjoyed the bits with the faculty far more than the Rincewind bits. Especially the Senior Wrangler and Mrs. Whitlow 😂 And the poor Librarian! 4mo
julesG @BarbaraJean yes, the faculty 'going for a team-building excursion' balanced it out a bit. 4mo

slategreyskies I‘ve been tagged in these posts since the beginning, but I never got around to reading any of the books. Life got in the way, and I never started. Do these books build on each other? I mean, do they need to be read in chronological order to get the full experience? I‘m way too far behind to ever catch up to the group now! (edited) 4y
julesG @slategreyskies No, you don't need to read them in chronological order. They can be read as standalones. 4y
slategreyskies Okay, thanks!! @julesG 4y
