Snuff - A Diskworld Novel

One of the final books ever written by the legendary Sir Terry, and perhaps one of his most striking. Sam Vimes, the greatest copper in fiction, finds himself in dangerous and uncharted territory: A countryside vacation with his family. But it wouldn't be a Vimes story if something so mundane didn't quickly spiral out of control, leading Vimes on a caper involving goblins, a slavery ring, and a string of events that will change the Discworld forevermore.

Able to effortlessly flip between being hilarious, gripping, and tearjerking, this is a book that proves that Sir Terry was at the top of his game, even toward the end of his life. And while it may be very deep into the Discworld's continuity, Pratchett's talent is such that even a newcomer can jump in and not be lost.
