ABOUT THE ORIGINAL BOOK

Guards! Guards! by Terry Pratchett is a comedic fantasy novel set in the chaotic city of Ankh-Morpork, where the arrival of a dragon throws the city into disarray. A secret society plots to seize power by summoning a dragon and installing a puppet king, while the city's Night Watch struggles to maintain order. The story follows Captain Vimes and his men as they try to deal with the chaos, and a new recruit, Carrot, who takes everything literally. The story explores themes of power, perception, and the nature of heroism while satirizing fantasy tropes. It also examines how easily people can be manipulated by the promise of a solution and delves into how collective imagination shapes reality.
