I don't know what it is, but the Industrial Revolution books just don't seem engaging to me. ( ) Skemmtilegasta saga. Segir frá de Worde, náunga sem hefur í sig og á með því að skrifa reglulega bréf til ráðamanna annarra ríkja með fréttum og slúðri af lífinu í Ankh-Morphok. Þegar nokkrir dvergar kynna honum fyrir nýrri uppfinningu, prentvélinni, sér fréttasnápurinn möguleika á að gefa út fréttablað. Þegar Vetinari stjórnandi borgarinnar er svo handtekinn vegna furðulegs glæps fer de Worde á stúfana, spyr spurninga og birtir þær í fréttasneplinum. Nú lenda misvitrir aðilar Vaktarinnar, lögregluliðs borgarinnar, í óvæntri aðstöðu þegar þeir eru krafðir svara um upplýsingar fyrir íbúa borgarinnar.
In [b:The Truth|34498|The Truth (Discworld, #25; Industrial Revolution, #2)|Terry Pratchett|https://images.gr-assets.com/books/1347487127s/34498.jpg|280092], investigative journalism comes to the Discworld. A young man named William de Worde creates a paper (the Ankh-Morpork Times) of "things written down" which ends up far more popular than he expected, leading to copy cat tabloids and a shakedown from the established printers of the city. One nice thing about this book is that it could almost have been a City Watch book. We get plenty of Lord Vetinari and Commander Vimes, along with a few appearances by others in the City Watch. Those are (so far) my favorites among the Discworld books, so I'll take it. Another interest addition to the universe is Mr. Tulip, who swears a lot... except all you hear him say is "ing". As in --ing this or --ing that. It's kind of hilarious and kind of hard to follow, especially in audiobook form. Perhaps my favorite part of the book though is Otto, a vampire from Überwald who's sworn off blood (we see more of that in the later City Watch books) who runs the cameras for the Ankh-Morpork Times. The best part? He's still a vampire... Whenever his flashbulb goes off, he has a tendency to burn badly and running screaming. Listening to that in the audiobook version is all sorts of fun.

A new stage adaptation of one of Pratchett's best-selling novels There's been a murder. Allegedly. William de Worde is the Discworld's first investigative journalist. He didn't mean to be - it was just an accident. But, as William fills his pages with reports of local club meetings and pictures of humorously shaped vegetables, dark forces high up in Ankh-Morpork's society are plotting to overthrow te city's ruler, Lord Vetinari."One of the funniest authors alive" The Independent.
