Guards! Guards! Av Terry Pratchett

<p><b>First book of the original and best CITY WATCH series, now reinterpreted in BBC''s The Watch</b><br><i><br>''Vimes ran a practised eye over the assortment before him. It was the usual Ankh-Morpork mob in times of crisis; half of them were here to complain, a quarter of them were here to watch the other half, and the remainder were here to rob, importune or sell hotdogs to the rest.''<br><br></i>Insurrection is in the air in Ankh-Morpork. The Haves and Have-Nots are about to fall out all over again. Captain Sam Vimes of the city''s ramshackle Night Watch is used to this. It''s enough to drive a man to drink. Well, to drink <i>more</i>. But this time, something is different - the Have-Nots have found the key to a dormant, lethal weapon that even they don''t fully understand, and they''re about to unleash a campaign of terror on the city. Time for Captain Vimes to sober up.</p>
