Book Review-Guards! Guards!/Terry Pratchett (Discworld #8, City Watch #1)[image id: two covers of the book Guards! Guards!. one shows a dragon standing with white fire blasting from its mouth and steam coming out of its nostrils. the spine is shown with open books on it that look a bit as if they’re flying. the second cover shows a rock-like dragon in the air, blasting fire. a bunch of terrified people are cringing away from the fire. one of the people is holding a sword and another has a bow and arrow knocked.]Review:I really enjoy the characters in this-especially Vimes, Lady Sybil and Vetinari. I think that they’re enjoyable characters who are fun to watch alone but are great to watch interact with each other.I liked the beginning with the Secret Society and the beginning of the mystery with the dragon first appearing.I did not like the long stretch of the middle to the final battle. I was bored and it felt so long that by the time we got to the final battle I couldn’t believe it. It felt like there should be something bigger for everything I had just trudged through.The last few pages were good again.I think the characters are worth the middle but I don’t think the middle is worth the book.⭐⭐⭐ 3 out of 5 stars -- source link
