![]() This is especially true with this book which – being primarily aimed at children – is sharper than some of his other novels, it's less waffly, more concentrated and yes, physically shorter at 270 pages. Of course, you get well-developed characters and bucketloads of humour, but the story is always central. Pratchett is a wonderful author, a classic storyteller in the old tradition. We currently have three – two white ones (Sabrina and Salem) and a black and white one (Hattie). I have been really getting into Pratchett in the past year or so and had been looking forward to this one, because I'm a big fan of rats! I have kept rats on and off since 1989.
