Omtale fra forlaget
A beautiful hardback edition of the classic Discworld novel. In this and indeed other lives there are givers and takers. It's safe to say that vampires are very much in the latter camp.
They don't have much time for the givers of this world - except perhaps mealtimes - and even less for priests. Mightily Oats has not picked a good time to be a priest. Lancre's newest residents are a thoroughly modern, sophisticated vampire family.
They've got style and fancy waistcoats. They're out of the casket and want a bite of the future. But they haven't met the neighbours yet: between them and Lancre stand Granny Weatherwax and Nanny Ogg.
And Magrat, who is trying to combine witchcraft and nappies. And young Agnes, although she is really in two minds about everything. Mightily Oats knows he has a prayer, but he wishes he had an axe.

'Oh, I don't know, I really don't', said Nanny. 'I mean, it's flattering and everything, but I really don't think I could be goin' out with a man with a limp'.
'Limp what?'
Nanny Ogg had always considered herself unshockable, but there's no such thing. Shock can come from unexpected directions.
Those who are inclined to casual cruelty say that inside a fat girl is a thin girl and a lot of chocolate. Agnes's thin girl was Perdita.
'People have quite the wrong idea about vampires, you see. Are we fiendish killers?' He beamed at them. 'Well, yes, of course we are. But only when necessary.'
Now the Quite Reverend Oats looked at himself in the mirror. He was a bit uneasy about the mirror, to be honest. Mirrors had led to one of the Church’s innumerable schisms, one side saying that since they encouraged vanity they were bad, and the other saying that since they reflected the goodness of Om they were holy. Oats had not quite formed his own opinion, being by nature someone who tries to see something in both sides of every question, but at least the mirrors helped him get his complicated clerical collar on straight.
It's one thing saying you've got the best god, but sayin' it's the only real one is a bit of a cheek.
