    I love all his books. Vimes were my initial favorite but I feel like the Mort ones were the most compelling. Wyrd sisters are absolutely hilarious, too.

    He’s a little young to really pick up on any of the jokes so I’ll read a paragraph and talk through it with him. He’s unconcious after like 3 pages. Planning to expand out as he gets older

          I mean Vetinari is a tyrant and a member of an aristocratic elite, but he is always scheming and working to take down the oppressive power structures. Dude works against creating an empire and then works against putting down a left-wing rebellion in his city.
          If he’s a socialist he’s either some sort of incrementalist or accelerationist. Either way he’s played brilliantly by Charles Dance
