Theif of Time, Terry Pratchett.
I'm always sad, yet estatic with anticipation whenever I finish a discworld book.
I have read all of them in order, which made the experience even more enjoyable, even though I did stop for a few months at a time and picked up other books in the process.
This book, however, 'Theif of Time,' it's possibly (and I know this will be a bold overstatement, but am ready to make it) the best discworld I've read.
'Small Gods' was great, though it lacked the humor and satire that I come to expect (not in the terms that he 'owes' me satire and cynicism, but perhaps one can expect a level of at least humor in his books).
In any case, Theif of Time contains all of what one has become to love about discworld.
My rating: 4.5/5
