The Gnome King reviewed Pyramids by Terry Pratchett
Review of 'Pyramids' on 'Goodreads'
3 stars
I always find Pratchett's book hard to read and really struggled at times with this one, I think having all new characters didn't help, in his other books having a familiar face is very helpful. In Pyramids Pratchett does write some very clever lines, unfortunately they are not as frequent as in previous books so there were only a few laughs from me this time. I did enjoy a lot of the references to our history, especially the Trojan horse(s) scene, that was one moment of brilliance. The biggest weakness was the development of a number of characters at the assassins academy which were then not used again...still I expect Pratchett re-uses them in future books.
Roight book 7 done, off to see what book 8 is.
