The Truth, Terry Pratchett
Jun. 29th, 2022 06:08 amI finished Raising Steam and went back a bit to The Truth.
Kind of want to mine it for quotes.
As usual the story rattles along being fun and thrilling and then knocks you for a loop with some big thought that's both out of nowhere and a payoff to a dozen little things.
He is really, really, good at this.
I want to have big thoughts back at it, but either the book said it already or I am still chewing the ideas.

It's just holding a magnifying glass up, and leaves you thoughtful in the best ways, without so much as slowing down the story with the wizards and the talking dog.
I want to read the next book, or possibly loop back to the beginning and read all the wizards, or something, but, I also want to think about this one a lot, since it has a new angle whenever I turn it around again.
