Night Watch by Terry Pratchett
My rating: 5 of 5 stars
Every time I read Night Watch I enjoy it more. The story is sad and beautiful.
I think this is my favourite of the Vimes books as it doesn't have the silliness of some of the others. Don't get me wrong, silliness is not something I'm opposed to, but I always find this book to be delightfully bittersweet.
I love Carcer as a villain because he inspires such intense loathing in me. I felt that Stephen Briggs' performance of him was absolutely perfect, down to capturing that horrible chuckle. My fists itched to punch him out.
What can I say about Vimes? Vimes is perfect. He's flawed, he's cynical, and deep down he's a bit of a softie. Sybil is a lucky lady!
Oh well, on to the next book!
