Monstrous Regiment (Discworld Novels) by Terry Pratchett
Monstrous Regiment (Discworld Novels)

Alex George, August 4, 2012

Although taking place in the Discworld series, this is another fine stand alone book. Like most Discworld books, you will meet some familiar characters along the way.
This particular story prompts one to consider such lofty subjects as racism and sexism. BUT it does it in such a humorous way that even if you yourself were guilty of such things, you might find a subtle change within yourself at the end of the book.
Even if the underlying subject matter isn't your particular cup of tea, the adventures and characters are so well done that by not reading this you would be doing yourself a disservice to yourself if you are a fan of humorous fantasy at all.
