Vampires, werewolves and dwarves, oh my!

Vimes is reluctant ambassador to Uberwald, Cheery brings dwarven femininity back home, Angua runs off to deal with her terribly family and so Carrot follows her.

Meanwhile Sergeant Colon becomes dictator of the sugar cubes and Lady Sybil would just like a quiet moment alone with her husband.

In this first part we discuss dwarf culture and werewolf-style fascism. Part 2 coming soon.

It's witches vs vampires in Lancre, and where is Granny Weatherwax?

Carpe Jugulum looks at the roles of witches and the difficult, hidden choices that communities need someone to make.

There's also examination of how vampires crave and use power over people, which is very relevant now fascism is on the rise.

We discuss how this book acts as a low key sequel to Small Gods, as well as being the last in the Lancre Witches sequence.
