Publisher Description

'THE JURISDICTION OF A GOOD MAN EXTENDS TO THE END OF THE WORLD.'

Commander Sam Vimes of the Ankh-Morpork City Watch is having some time off. Apparently.

But crime doesn't take a break - it's a truth universally acknowledged that a policeman on holiday would barely have time to open his suitcase before he finds his first corpse.

In the seemingly peaceful countryside, Vimes discovers much more than a body in the wardrobe. For the local nobles are hiding a deep, dark secret. There are many, many bodies - and an ancient atrocity more terrible than murder.

Vimes is out of his jurisdiction, out of his depth and out of his mind. But never out of ideas. Where there is a crime there must be a punishment.

They say that in the end all sins are forgiven. This might be the exception ...

'As effortlessly, generously funny as only Pratchett can be, Snuff doesn't stint on laying bare the darker side of life either' Sunday Times

Another wonderful adventure with Commander Vimes!

Terry Pratchett and Commander Vimes are at it again, along with a familiar cast of our favorite characters. For lovers of Terry's Discworld novels you won't be disappointed, and for those just coming to them - jump in you'll love it!

The only bone I have to pick is with the EBook formatting - Terry is well known for his amusing footnotes which add great enjoyment and a wicked sense of humor to the story. In this format though the footnotes are at the end of the story rather than the bottom of the page - which really defeats the point. Hopefully this will be fixed soon as it is a definite draw back in buying the books in this format given they are full price.

Otherwise though loved the story.

Completely Addictive

Remember as a kid, you would eat your dessert with a teaspoon (ok, so some of us still do), so you could make the bliss last as long as possible?

Well, this book is one of those experiences.

Truly superb.
