Dining Table Discworld

Vampires, werewolves and dwarves, oh my!

Vimes is reluctant ambassador to Uberwald, Cheery brings dwarven femininity back home, Angua runs off to deal with her terribly family and so Carrot follows her.

Meanwhile Sergeant Colon becomes dictator of the sugar cubes and Lady Sybil would just like a quiet moment alone with her husband.

In this first part we discuss dwarf culture and werewolf-style fascism. Part 2 coming soon.

It's witches vs vampires in Lancre, and where is Granny Weatherwax?

Carpe Jugulum looks at the roles of witches and the difficult, hidden choices that communities need someone to make.

There's also examination of how vampires crave and use power over people, which is very relevant now fascism is on the rise.

We discuss how this book acts as a low key sequel to Small Gods, as well as being the last in the Lancre Witches sequence.

In a book described by its creator as "a bit Australian" Rincewind travels erratically through a dry, red continent.
He meets a lot of people mostly trying to avoid being a saviour, aided and pursued by a shape-shifter that's usually a kangaroo.
Ponder Stibbons despairs of the older wizards when the Faculty gets stuck on a mysterious island in the distant past.
 
We discuss our own limited knowledge of Australia, why we prefer the wizards a bit more diluted and how the UU functions as a container for folk better kept away from everyone else.

We discuss the live action, TV adaptation of Hogfather.

Including what's changed from the book, how menacing Mark Warren is, and the quality of the visuals.

Also is the Ankh the Maris Crane of rivers?

Suddenly Ankh-Morpork is keen to go to war, which is bad news for those trying to keep the peace.

Vimes chases a suspect out of his element and learns something about big crimes and little crimes.

Meanwhile, on special assignment, Nobby gets in touch with his feminine side, and Colon hopefully learns something.

We discuss how this book is instructive for white kids from the English countryside, how sadly it keeps being relevant, and whether you can even have jingoism without an empire.
