Quick book note: Monstrous Regiment

[redbird]

I just read Terry Pratchett's Monstrous Regiment. It's a good book, and I like Polly and Maledict and Sgt. Jackrum, but I'm wondering whether it's me or Pratchett who's changed: I only laughed out loud once, and that was at one of the footnotes.

This time out, we get a religion that's stupid even by Discworld standards, with a god whose list of Abominations includes the color blue, leading his followers to try not to look at the sky. Vimes and Angua turn up, briefly, but I get a feeling Pratchett may be tired of Ankh-Morpork.

When I saw him at a signing for it last year he kept saying that it was good but not his best -- according to him Night Watch was his best.
