Feet Of Clay Summary

Feet Of Clay: (Discworld Novel 19) by Terry Pratchett

Sorry?' said Carrot. If it's just a thing, how can it commit murder? A sword is a thing' - he drew his own sword; it made an almost silken sound - 'and of course you can't blame a sword if someone thrust it at you, sir.' For members of the City Watch, life consists of troubling times, linked together by periods of torpid inactivity. Now is one such troubling time. People are being murdered, but there's no trace of anything alive having been at the crime scene. Is there ever a circumstance in which you can blame the weapon not the murderer? Such philosophical questions are not the usual domain of the city's police, but they're going to have to start learning fast...

Feet Of Clay Reviews

"Like reading Tolkien but with gags - and good gags too" Guardian "The great Terry Pratchett, whose wit is metaphysical, who creates an energetic and lively secondary world, who has a multifarious genius for strong parody ... who deals with death with startling originality. Who writes amazing sentences" -- A.S. Byatt New York Times "His spectacular inventiveness makes the Discworld series one of the perennial joys of modern fiction" Mail on Sunday "The work of a prolific humorist at his best" Observer "Like most true originals, Pratchett defies categorisation...Deliciously and amiably dotty...Driven by Swiftian logic and equally intellectually inventive" The Times
