Terry Pratchett has so much fun with his world, characters, and narrative itself that it's hard not to love this series. This one felt a little tamer than the first two in the series but Pratchett loves his characters so much that you can't help but feel the same for them. Really, after all the heavy and series literature I've been reading dipping into Discworld for a bit is a great reminder of the sheer pleasure literature (writing it; reading it) affords. I recommend this series to anyone.
