Capital! [Or would that be ‘capitol’?] Never a disappointing moment, a rollicking ride through delicious plot twists and all with the inimitable Pratchett “joie d’écrire”!

Easy to read, a deep plot, engaging characters, an exceptional way to bring in old favorites.

Another good disc book, but a bit lackluster compared to other Lipwig stories

As an avid fan of Sir Pratchett's Discworld, reading this book was both a joy, and somewhat mournful. This particular story seems to lack the wit and cynicism typical of his earlier works. While still a compelling read, a small part of me felt as though this book was Sir Pratchett's way of saying goodbye to his beloved characters of Ankh Morpork. Suffering from Alzheimer's, writing has been difficult for the famed author in his latter years, and this book didn't feel like it had the wit and tounge-in-cheek attitude his works usually have. That said, I devoured this story, and Sir Pratchett's gift of storytelling, his characters, and his understanding of human nature are strong as ever. If this is to be his final chapter of Discworld, it is a fitting end. I truly hope this is not the case,and pray for another book from Sir Terry soon.

Moist, Vimes, and Veternari among others put in appearances in an enjoyable read about technology coming to the Disc. Avid Terry Pratchett fans might notice that the circular logic used may be just a little too circular, and the humor is not quite as off-beat and lopsided as usual. As a reader, instead of the usual oblivious and enjoyable ride in the back seat, I found myself being imbued with a purpose....as Mr..Pratchett might say, all of my fangles were encouraged to be new ones while reading this book. Nevertheless, worth reading if only for the exploration of the difference between species.

I've read and loved every one of Mr. Pratchett's books, and this one stands with the best of them. Considering recent health reports, I had imagined he would be winding down, but this shows no evidence of that at all. I'm looking forward to finishing this one so I can start it over.

Funny and deep as only Pratchett does it.
