Von Ein Kunde
Format:Taschenbuch
Imagine a book that is so sinister and gloomy it is disturbingly creepy to read. Imagine a book that has so many deep,hidden themes that you'll be thinking about it for weeks to come. Imagine a book that is so controversial you'll begin to question everything and everyone around you. Now think of the exact opposite and you get Feet of Clay, one of the books in Terry Pratchett's great Discworld series.

This book is simply a great, fun read. It's packed full of good humor and lively characters. Reading this book is actually fun. Where and when better to base a funny book than in the city of Ankh-Morpork in the medieval/fantasy era we all know and love. The book has it all-goblins,dwarfs, dragons and lots more are all brilliantly protrayed and are so brimming with character you can nearly shake their hands (or paws or tentacles....).

Most of the book revolves around the Ankh-Morpork City Watch (police). While Commander Vimes,head of the watch, is trying to unravel the mystery of who's poisoning Lord Vetinari, Corporal Nobbs, a simple officer,has found out he is the Earl of Ankh-Morpork and Cheery Littlebottom, the watches dwarfish alchemist, is starting to show her feminine side. All these and many more plots weave together excellently to form a gripping climax.

However, it's not all fun and games.Like most books there are a few hidden meanings and themes. Most of the themes are religious issues and things like "what defines something as living" and " sould man have the power of life over others". I must point out that this book isn't meant to be full of moral issues and if you're looking for a deep and meaningful book you should look elsewhere....

Pratchett writes in a very 'bouncy'way, it's very lively and i find it very pleasant and refreshing. The speech in Feet of Clay way very natural and not always important to the plot. Lots of the humor in the book is in reading the characters chat( about things like dwarfish table- dancers and paying gargoyles in pigeons).

One thing I noticed is that the book has no chapters. I'm not sure if this is a good thing but it does make the book hard to put down because ther's not definite place to stop.

This is a must read for all fantasy lovers and anyone who wants something to tickle their funny bone. I will definitely read the rest fo the Discworld series now. Feet of Clay is an enthralling, fun novel that will grab you by the eyeballs and wont let go till you're finished it. Lesen Sie weiter... ›

5.0 von 5 Sternen non-stop fun! 28. März 2000
Format:Taschenbuch
This is one of Pratchett's best works. As a Discworld fan, this is a must read. For a new reader, you might want to read "Men at Arms" first. Some new characters are introduced in this book, like Dorfl the golem, a lot will appear again in other books. In short, Feet of Clay will keep you laughing till the last page.

4.0 von 5 Sternen Not Quite as Good as other watch novels 19. Mai 1999
Von Ein Kunde
Format:Taschenbuch
I love Discworld and I'm tired of hearing Pratchett compared to Douglas Adams. They're both British and write humor. However, Adams writes wacky inane things which are funny, whereas Pratchett writes wacky satire which is funny. Feet of Clay is not quite as good as some of what came before it; Guards! Guards! in particular is my favorite discworld novel; but I was glad to see the Watch back in this book, and it's good to see old characters again. A good book but I'd reccommend other books in the series to start out with; this one has a few too many in-jokes.

5.0 von 5 Sternen A new Discworld book that lives up to the series. 9. September 1997
Format:Taschenbuch
If you're like me, and voraciously read the great British authour Terry Pratchett's Discworld novels as soon as you see them on the shelves of the local bookstore, then there is a genuine cosmic force that will compell you to get this one and nothing I can say will make any difference.


But lately, over the last few entries into the series, that certain colour of magic has been missing from them, which made the early works so great to read. But not to worry...Pratchett is definately in top form with this one, which marks the always hilarious return of the Anhk-Morepork City Watch, headed by 'Sir' Samuel Vimes.


Along with the already well fleshed-out main cast of Watchmen including Corp. Carrot, Angua, Nobbs, Detritus and Fred Colon, we have some new characters, all who jump off the page with Pratchett's expert handling. Even though this is a comic view of fantasy, sort of a Douglas Adams by way of Tolkien, there might be no better weaver of plot and character than Mr. Pratchett.


As usual, the much put-upon metropolis of Ankh-Morepork is in grave peril, this time by a rampaging Golem, out of control and looking for blood. Things are complicated by another crisis as the slow poisoning of the Patrician has Vimes retracing the path of his childhood.


So, as we've come to expect from our previous travels across the Discworld, Pratchett throws in everything but the kitchen sink, somehow managing to stray off in many directions but always keeping a complicated plot, engaging characters, vivid location and a continuing sense of wonder with this world all in the air at the same time.


Trust me. Buy this book. It's worth any price. And that's cuttin' me own throat!

4.0 von 5 Sternen The Title gives too much away 14. Juni 2000
Format:Taschenbuch
There's a murderer loose in Ankh-Morpork it's up to the gumshoes to find him. This episode in the Discworld Saga concentrates on Commander Vimes, Carrot and various others in the Watch. Nobbs is promoted to nobility and of course gets as drunk as a Lord. We meet female dwarves, thwart assination attempts on the Patrician, get to solve a murder mystery and stop a riot involving the city's golems. Oh, yes and we get to meet many of the newest Watch members. My only disappointment in this one is that Pratchett's usual strange twists, weren't quite up to par. Perhaps he had recently read too many obvious mystery novels and wanted the reader to figure out the plots ahead of time muttering to themselves. He does effectively lampoon many mystery writers as well as create a marvolously convoluted plot that dovetails, if not mysteriously, at least with humourous consequences.
