Helpful Score: 1

As with the other Discworld novels, Terry Pratchett's satirical humour abounds, including his oblique (and some not so oblique) references to aspects of British culture. At the same time, be warned, the storeyline is pretty dark. This book might just change your attitude towards elves and fairies - such as referring to them as Fairy Trash! For those who can see beyond the obvious tales being told, many of his books are a subtle social commentary.
