I really enjoyed the sharpness and satirical response to organized crime and government puppetry in guards! guards! and as a newcomer to discworld, a writer like pratchett seems more like a magician who can get a chuckle or a big grin out of me in every other scene. the characters feel more fleshed out and lovable, and I smiled literally any time the city watch crew had scenes together. I’ll definitely return to the city watch books soon and can’t wait to see what’s in store for captain vimes!
