Another Club Another Dance Floor Men at Arms - Terry Pratchett

Second part of the great novel that I discussed above.

In my opinion, this second part has a much more mature than the first, which followed more the prototype of "heroic romance" with his evil Dragon, its heroes and such (yes, on the other side of the curtain in which the heroes are not as heroes, humans as individuals). Men At Arms such topics as death and sex, issues that Guards! "Guards? were barely even hinted (this is relative, because Death is always present in Pratchett's books), giving the story a more adult, with passions and betrayals most vile burst.

The narrative style is andl it. Torn comedy, the sad story that keeps a cynical smile and gritty in the mouth of the reader, the joke, sometimes absurd, sometimes easy, often bitter that out of almost any situation, the parody of the moral concepts, the distortion of human concepts ... In short, the style that characterizes the work of this great English writer.

Men At Arms the plot takes us back to Ankh Morpork, again giving us the wonderful company of Vimes, Carrot and company. "I know a man in the city guard." This phrase appeared at the beginning of the novel pretty much sums up the beginning of the meeting. The Night Watch needs men and well, beautiful Angua, the burly Detritus (Troll more stupid than normalevil - which is saying) and Cuddy the Dwarf join the particular group of guards.

This time, the problem is not as flashy as a Dragon of twenty meters. It is a problem in the shade, in silence. That is the question. A twenty-meter dragon is very ... tangible, as it somehow. Yes, it certainly is a big problem, but you can see and study. This time, however, the novel acquires a tinge more police investigation under the goings-Vetinari, Dr Cruces, Dr. Carablanca, alchemists, Dwarves, Trolls and Dogs. Yes, all bring a stone to the cause to build the pillars on which stands the work: the theft and subsequent use of a "rifle."
Al
evolution of the same.

In short, another brilliant, witty, bittersweet and addictive on the Discworld.
