It was bleakly depressing to think that they were us.'</i><br><br><b>War is brewing on the Discworld.</b><br><br>An island has appeared from the ocean depths, right in the middle of the sea which separates the proud empires of Klatch and Ankh-Morpork. Of course, no one would dream of starting a war with the neighbours without a perfectly good reason . . . such as a 'strategic' piece of old rock, for instance.<br><br>But when a Klatchian Prince is almost assassinated, peace talks break down and violent nationalism begins to spread. Ankh-Morpork prepares to fight. Only thing is, they don't have an army. Or much in the way of weapons.<br><br>Commander Sam Vimes and the 'officially disbanded' City Watch get caught up in a deadly political game where the enemy appears to be on both sides, and no one will listen to reason.<br><br><b>And if they don't stop this absurd war, no one will . . .</b><br><br>Jingo<i> is the fourth book in the City Watch series, but you can read the Discworld novels in any order.</i><br><br>Praise for the <i>Discworld</i> series:<br><br>'[Pratchett's] spectacular inventiveness makes the Discworld series <b>one of the perennial joys of modern fiction'</b> <i>Mail on Sunday</i><br><br>'Pratchett is <b>a master storyteller</b>' <i>Guardian</i><br><br><b>'One of our greatest fantasists, </b>and beyond a doubt<b> the funniest' </b>George R.R.
