![]() And Sam Vimes would be the first to agree with us. ![]() But reviewing a series about “good” cops is a difficult prospect in the ACAB era.Īll cops are bastards, even Sam Vimes. I’ve read these books at least 4 or 5 times since I first discovered them. ![]() Guards! Guards! is one of my favourite books of all time, and it is followed closely by the remainder of the Ankh-Morpork City Watch series. As a dragon terrorizes the city, a fresh-faced recruit tries to breath new life into the cynical Night Watch. But the winds of change are making their presence felt. In a city where the thieves and assassins form their own guilds and enjoy high social status, the ragtag team of policemen have one job when it comes to crime – run as fast as you can, and in the other direction. Synopsis: The Ankh-Morpork Night Watch, led by exhausted alcoholic Captain Sam Vimes, is a joke. “Are we quite finished? Any more knowlessmen happened to drop in on their way somewhere else?” Supreme Grand Master, Unique and Supreme Lodge of the Elucidated Brethren of the Ebon Night Cover Art for Guards! Guards! by Terry Pratchett ![]()
