Plus there's a chance to steer a novice watchman straight and teach him a valuable thing or three about policing, an impressionable young copper named Sam Vimes.
Sam Vimes knows his duty, and by changing history he might just save some worthwhile necks-though it could cost him his own personal future. Terrys latest book, Nation, a non-Discworld standalone YA novel was published in October of 2008 and was an instant New York Times and London Times bestseller. One moment, Sir Sam Vimes is in his old patrolman form, chasing a sweet-talking psychopath across the rooftops of Ankh-Morpork. Worst of all, it's the eve of a fabled street rebellion that needlessly destroyed more than a few good (and not so good) men. Discworld is a comic fantasy book series written by the English author Terry Pratchett, set on the Discworld, a flat planet balanced on the backs of four elephants which in turn stand on the back of a giant turtle. Captain Vimes is caught in a magical storm, and discovers that he has somehow been sent back in time. Worse still, the murderer he's pursuing has been transported back also. This Discworld is a darker place that Vimes remembers too well, three decades before his title, fortune, beloved wife, and impending first child.
The next, he's lying naked in the street, having been sent back thirty years courtesy of a group of time-manipulating monks who won't leave well enough alone.
