Unadulterated fun.San Francisco ChronicleThe fate of AnkhMorpork rests on the unlikely shoulders of newly promoted Corporal Carrot and his hapless charges in the City Watch in this wildly wacky Discworld novel from the legendary New York Times bestselling author Terry Pratchett.Corporal Carrot is now in charge of the new recruits guarding AnkhMorpork from barbarian rribes, miscellaneous marauders, unlicensed thieves, and other dangerous Discworld denizens. Its a big job for an adopted dwarf keeping the likes of young coppers Lanceconstable Cuddy (really a dwarf), Lanceconstable Detritus (a troll), Lanceconstable Angua (a woman. . . most of the time) and Corporal Nobbs (disqualified from the human race for shoving) in line.Especially since someone in AnkhMorpork has been getting dangerous ideas about crowns and legendary swords, and destinywhich points its crooked finger again when an ancient document reveals that AnkhMorpork has a secret sovereign.What's more, Captain Sam Vimes is getting married and retiring from the Watch. For good. Which is a shame, because no one knows the streets of AnkhMorpork or its criminal underworld better than him.Its the beginning of the most awesome epic encounter of all time (or at least all afternoon), in which the fate of a cityindeed of the universe itself!depends on a young mans courage, an ancient swords magic, and a threelegged poodles bladder.The Discworld novels can be read in any order but Men at Arms is the 2nd in the City Watch collection and the 15th Discworld book.The City Watch series in order: Guards! Guards! Men at Arms Feet of Clay Jingo The Fifth Elephant Night Watch Thud! Snuff
