The Fifth Elephant
4 journalers for this copy...
Back cover:
"Sam Vimes is a man on the run. Yesterday he was a duke, chief of police and the ambassador tp the myterious fat-rich country of Uberwald. Now he has nothing but his native wit and the gloomy trousers of Uncle Vanya (don't ask). It's snowing. It's freezing. And if he can't make it through the forest to civilization there's going to be a terrible war. But there are monsters on his trail. They're bright. They're fast. They're werewolves - and they're catching up."
I realized I could not read this book. I have read only one book of the Discworld -series so I have no clue of the characters or anything included. I have to give up and try to start from the beginning so it all would make sense to me :)

Thanks for the book, I love Discworld adventures and Sam Vimes is one of my favorite characters.

A great Discworld-adventure as usual, but somehow I didn't enjoy this as much as others I have read. It didn't feel so original and fun.
I got this as a virtuaali-bag book. =) I knew this was a Discworld book and I'm happy this is a book I have never read in finnish or in english. I hope I'll enjoy this.

I love everything written by Pratchett and altough this isn't one of his best stories, it was still good. =) I'd love to read more about Carrot, 'cause he's quite fascinating. And Vimes is of course cool too. I'll send this forward next week.
Fifth elephant leaves from Finland and goes to the next reader. =)
