Dining Table Discworld

Commander Vimes is thrown back in time, to the bad old days of curfews, revolution and the horrors of the Cable Street Particulars.

He is forced to become his own mentor, and try and keep things running as they did before so that he has a future to go back to.

But there's an extra killer on the loose this time and he wouldn't be Vimes if he didn't try to protect people, and the Glorious Republic is coming.

With 2 Vimes for the price of 1, Checkov's forceps and the use of cardboard-soled boots. Truth, Justice, Freedom, Reasonably-priced Love and a Hard-boiled Egg.

We take another brief interlude to take a look at the new Adventures in Ankh-Morpork Discworld Roleplaying game from Modiphius. (Who's name I'm sure I mispronounce every time I say it!)

We have a look at the new books, some of the dice and extras that came with the Kickstarter, and talk about who this game is aimed at and should you pick it up!

Our intro and outro music is Beyond Infinity by user BlenderTimer on Pixabay.

The Amazing Maurice (a smart cat) and his Educated Rodents (a clan of smart rats) are planning one last rat-piper con job, but the town of Bad Blintz was a bad place to pick.

The smart rats are figuring out how they fit in the world, the smart cat reckons he just wants the money, the stupid-looking kid turns out to have a name, and the Mayor's fanciful daughter has read way too many books.

Meanwhile there's something nasty underground, and not just the shady rat fighting ring.

We discuss this first Discworld foray into YA and various talking animal books it might be in conversation with.

The universe is going to end, as soon as the glass clock strikes and it's a race against, well... Time, to either create or destroy it.

We discuss how Susan is Death's unwitting loophole, and needs some friends who are grown women.

We celebrate the History Monks, possibly an answer to internet pedants.

We consider how Pratchett might have built on ideas from a previous book.
