Pratchett’s “Monstrous Regiment” is a rollicking adventure that blends humor, heart, and biting social commentary. Following Polly Perks as she disguises herself as a boy to join the army, the novel explores gender roles and the absurdity of war. With his trademark wit and a cast of unforgettable characters, Pratchett weaves a tale that’s both hilarious and thought-provoking. I found myself laughing out loud one moment and pondering deep questions the next. It’s quintessential Discworld – clever, chaotic, and utterly captivating.
The presence of those seeking the truth is infinitely to be preferred to the presence of those who think they've found it.
