There's a werewolf with pre-lunar tension in Ankh-Morpork. And a dwarf with attitude, and a Golem who's begun to think for itself. But Commander Vimes is more concerned about the crime that's happened. He's got to find out not only whodunit, but howdunit too. He's not even sure what they dun. But as soon as he knows what the questions are, he's going to want some answers.

recenzuje Feet of Clay autorstwa Terry Pratchett (Discworld, #19)

NO MASTER

As a Jewish person, I don’t know how to feel about the ending.

But then again, Pratchett was notorious for overgeneralizations and ethnic stereotypes in his books (take the whole inverse asians, who travel to Ankh-Morpork to study at the feet of a regular Morporkian housewife or Time Monks from the same book, some examples from forthcoming Jingo). However these overgeneralizations for me hitting just the right left-centrist note to not sound ethnicitist.

That said, if I would had to formulate an outtake of this book in one phrase, I would say “you can’t spell nobility without knob… even if you do”.
