Sam Vimes falls through a space-time anomaly, and finds himself in charge of a watch house during a revolution.
Pratchett excels here, mixing a tense plot, time-travel paradox-dodging and social comment with his trademark puns. He makes telling points about the nature of law and order, particularly the dividing line between cops who cut a few corners to get their man, and plain bad cops.
This is an exceedingly good book, with cautionary words for all those contemplating the present global political landscape.
