This was the first time I have read a book by Terry Pratchett that was not co-authored by Neil Gaiman. I was not disappointed.
Pratchett definitely has a certain style, a sense of humor and razor-sharp sarcasm that were on full display in this novel. He walks the reader through the new life of Moist Von Lipwig and his job as Postmaster in the now-defunct Ankh Morpak Post Office.
This was a very fun book to read. The characters were as interesting as they were odd. The subplots of pin collecting and stamp collecting, the politics of the Post Office vs the Grand Trunk clacks system, and the issues of hope and angels and second chances were all very well done and laugh-out-loud funny.
If you are wired in such as way as to appreciate the kind of humor that Pratchett employs, then you should thoroughly enjoy this book.
