Omtale fra forlaget
MIGHTY BATTLES! REVOLUTION! DEATH! WAR! (AND HIS SONS TERROR AND PANIC, AND DAUGHTER CLANCY). The oldest and most inscrutable empire on the Discworld is in turmoil, brought about by the revolutionary treatise What I did on My Holidays. Workers are uniting, with nothing to lose but their water buffaloes.
Warlords are struggling for power. War (and Clancy) are spreading throughout the ancient cities. And all that stands in the way of terrible doom for everyone is: Rincewind the Wizard, who can't even spell the word 'wizard'...Cohen the barbarian hero, five foot tall in his surgical sandals, who has had a lifetime's experience of not dying...and a very special butterfly.

Just because it's not nice doesn't mean it's not miraculous.
Return to where?" Lord Vetinari turned to face him. "Not, let me make it clear, to the Counterweight continent",he said. "This is not one of those birds the Agatean Empire uses for its message service. It is a well-known fact that we have no contact with that mysterious land. And this bird is not the first to arrive here for many years,and it did not bring a strange and puzzling messages. Do I make myself clear?" "No." "Good." "This is not an albatross?" The Patrician smiled. "Ah,I can see you're getting the hang of it.
There is a curse.
They say: May you live in interesting times.
Six Beneficient Wind had the same sense of humour as a chicken casserole. True, he played the accordion for amusement, and he disliked cats intensely, and had a habit of dabbing his upper lip with his napkin after his tea ceremony in a way that made Mrs Beneficient Winds commit murder in her mind on a regular basis over the years. And he kept his money in a small leather shovel purse, and counted it out very thoroughly whenever he made a purchase, especially if there was a queue behind him.
