Discover the gloriously inventive and funny fantasy novel from bestselling author Terry Pratchett, the fourth book in the City Watch series, part of the Discworld novels.
'Generous, amusing and the ideal boarding point for those who have never visited Discworld' Sunday Telegraph
'Terry Pratchett was a genius' 5-star reader review
'It was so much easier to blame it on them. It was bleakly depressing to think that they were us.'
War is brewing on the Discworld.
An island has appeared from the ocean depths, right in the middle of the sea which separates the proud empires of Klatch and Ankh-Morpork. Of course, no one would dream of starting a war with the neighbours without a perfectly good reason . . . such as a 'strategic' piece of old rock, for instance.
But when a Klatchian Prince is almost assassinated, peace talks break down and violent nationalism begins to spread. Ankh-Morpork prepares to fight. Only thing is, they don't have an army. Or much in the way of weapons.
Commander Sam Vimes and the 'officially disbanded' City Watch get caught up in a deadly political game where the enemy appears to be on both sides, and no one will listen to reason.
And if they don't stop this absurd war, no one will . . .
Jingo is the fourth book in the City Watch series, but you can read the Discworld novels in any order.
Praise for the Discworld series:
'[Pratchett's] spectacular inventiveness makes the Discworld series one of the perennial joys of modern fiction' Mail on Sunday
'Pratchett is a master storyteller' Guardian
'One of our greatest fantasists, and beyond a doubt the funniest' George R.R. Martin
'One of those rare writers who appeals to everyone' Daily Express
'One of the most consistently funny writers around' Ben Aaronovitch
'Masterful and brilliant' Fantasy & Science Fiction
'Pratchett uses his other world to hold up a distorting mirror to our own... he is a satirist of enormous talent ... incredibly funny ... compulsively readable' The Times
'The best humorous English author since P.G. Wodehouse' The Sunday Telegraph
'Nothing short of magical' Chicago Tribune
'Consistently funny, consistently clever and consistently surprising in its twists and turns' SFX
