书籍介绍

"Everyone knows that the world is flat, and supported on the backs of four elephants. But weren't there supposed to be five? Indeed there were. So where is it?..."When duty calls. Commander Vimes of the Ankh-Morpork constabulary answers. Even when he doesn't want to. He's been "invited" to attend a royal function as both detective and diplomat. The one role he relishes; the other requires, well, ruby tights. Of course where cops (even those clad in tights) go, alas, crime follows. An attempted assassination and a theft soon lead to a desperate chase from the low halls of Discworld royalty to the legendary fat mines of Uberwald, where lard is found in underground seams along with tusks and teeth and other precious ivory artifacts. It's up to the dauntless Vimes -- bothered as usual by a familiar cast of Discworld inhabitants (you know, trolls, dwarfs, werewolves, vampires and such) -- to solve the puzzle of the missing pachyderm. Which of course he does. After all, solving mysteries "is" his job.

时隔大半年终于克服了碟形世界后20本不是Nigel Planer读的心理障碍。。新声优并没有比Nigel读得更好!每本书里都会有一些怪笑角色好烦人!Vimes跟狼人搏斗那一段血腥又精彩。。他武力值简直越来越高了。。萝卜哥随着人格越来越完美,戏份就越来越少了到下一本几乎就没有了。。就是很想知道他跟女朋友什么时候生小狗子!
pratchett的书就是这样——每本水平都很高,反过来说也就没有惊喜,对情节也没什么期待,反正看的就是字里行间的火花。四星纯粹是为了和灵思风系列有所对比……╮(=3=)╭
