      GUARDS! GUARDS! is the 8th Discworld novel - and after this, dragons will never be the same again!

      Readers adore Guards! Guards!

      ''You will enjoy it if you already enjoy fantasy; you will very likely enjoy it even if you don''t generally enjoy fantasy, because the humour, characterisation, and dialogue are ridiculously good'' Goodreads reviewer, ⭐ ⭐ ⭐ ⭐ ⭐

      ''This is one of my favorite Discworld books and one of the best starting points for the Discworld newbies . . .
