This book really got me in a reading slump. Perhaps because it's lighthearted it feels like there are no stakes. And so the story is very slow because I am not really at the edge of my seat in any way. It was very well and funny written. But comparing it to the first Discworld novel this was just too low or too slow. 

I did like the story tho some of the characters seemed extremely similar and I found it hard to keep them apart. Both Nobby and Colon are just so the same. The big conflict being resolved by some dragons going off to fuck tho is some solid comedy. I again had some problems with some descriptions but I acknowledge that this book is about 30 years old.
