'Beating people up in little rooms . . . he knew where that led. And if you did it for a good reason, you'd do it for a bad one. You couldn't say 'we;re the good guys' and do bad-guy things.'

Koom Valley, the ancient battle where the trolls ambushed the dwarfs, or the dwarfs ambushed the trolls, was a long time ago.

But if he doesn't solve the murder of just one dwarf, Commander Sam Vimes of Ankh-Morpork City Watch is going to see it fought again, right outside his office.

With his beloved Watch crumbling around him and war-drums sounding, he must unravel every clue, outwit every assassin and brave any darkness to find the solution. And darkness is following him.

Oh . . . and at six o'clock every day, without fail, with no excuses, he must go home to read 'Where's My Cow?', with all the right farmyard noises, to his little boy.

There are some things you have to do.

The Discworld novels can be read in any order but Thud! is the seventh book in the City Watch series.

Ce que les critiques en disent

Imaginative, witty and consistent - as in consistently funny, consistently clever and consistently surprising in its twists and turnss - Thud! is everything that the 30th novel in a fantasy sequence ought to be, and more.
Pratchett too requires us to think. Whenever I read his stories I find myself thinking that he is "grown up". He may write benign comedy but he knows how horribly complicated and exciting the Universe is.
You hardly need to review Pratchett nowadays...you know you can rely on him to be wirtty and quietly wise, and his creations have taken on a life of their own...A series that seems to re-invent itself by natural evolution every time.
'Thud! has a serious theme: racial intolerance. That Pratchett can explore this while still making us laugh is a tribute to the integrity of his created world ... Extremely funnym but it's also very near the knuckleduster.'

Classic Pratchett fun, read expertly as usual. I get so deep into the story, I forget the real world isn’t held up by four elephants on the back of a giant sky turtle!! 💖💖💖

This book is outstanding, as one can expect from any Terry Pratchett novel and any City Watch Discworld book in particular. Jon Culshaw once again embodies all the characters he voices, making it feel less like a book and more like a conversation overheard. Highly recommended for fans of Terry Pratchett and Discworld, although I'm fully aware they neither need nor want my recommendation.

Jon Culshaw triumphs

Thud is one of the best Sam Vimes stories and Jon Culshaw does a masterful job with it!

Wonderful

While I really loved all the other City Watch books, I really struggled to get through Thud. The story is hard to follow and just not that good. Carrot's deminished roll is a big miss. Vimes anger all the time was a downer as was Angua's whiney tone throughout. Sorry STP, but this was a fail for me. As always, Jon Culshaw's narration was 10+. Death's appearance was, as always, awesome!

Not one of my fav Discworld
