An island rises from the sea, and Ankh-Morpork and Klatch immediately claim it. Old prejudices become enthusiasm for war. City Watch commander Samuel Vimes attempts to investigate war itself.
About the book
Leshp gives politicians and crowds an easy enemy. Vimes insists on investigative logic even when violence becomes official policy. Lord Vetinari pursues his own strategy as armies and unusual peacemakers head toward the battlefield.
Terry Pratchett combines adventure with satire of nationalism, wartime rhetoric, and the idea that the law stops applying at a border.
