Discworld goes to war, with armies of sardines, warriors, fishermen, squid and at least one very camp follower.
ok, ive just been re-listening to men at arms on audiobook and i got to the line. As two armies march, Commander Vimes of Ankh-Morpork City Watch faces unpleasant foes who are out to get him…and that’s just the people on his side. Welcome to Jingo Jump, your ultimate source for quality. In our opinion, Jingo is one of the most quotable Discworld books. And even if they don’t have much in the way of actual weaponry. It is after all every citizen’s right to bear arms to defend what they consider to be their own. Such as a ‘strategic’ piece of old rock in the middle of nowhere. Of course, no-one would dream of starting a war without a perfectly good reason. People’d live for ages side by side, nodding at one another amicably on their way to work, and then some trivial thing would happen and someone would be having a garden fork removed from their ear.’ And when the neighbours in question are the proud empires of Klatch and Ankh-Morpork, those are going to be some pretty large garden tools indeed. The day Jingo rode into Tower Creek, the town was busy celebrating its twentieth anniversary.
