This was one of my favourite books when I was a teenager and it was fun to reread it over a decade later. I read a few pages a night before bed over the span of a few weeks and it was extremely relaxing. It's silly and full of tropes and Shakespeare and moments to make you chuckle. I recommend this as a starting point for anyone wanting to get into Pratchett's work - it's early enough in the series to be a good beginning but late enough that he's found his way. And everyone loves a good murder.
