Review of 'Jingo'
Jingo by Terry Pratchett
21st book in the 'Discworld' series
Yet another installment in the Discworld series and Pratchett is operating at his best with this story of the island of Leshp which mysteriously appears between Ankh-Morpork and Klatch beginning a story of personal ambition and politics not all that different from our world…Vimes is once again the central character as he struggles to figure out what is the most appropriate course of action to persue in the upholding of the law. This is one of the best of the series I have so far read with very real cutting comments made between the neverending jokes and sarcasm. A great read.
