The Death books (especially the ones with Susan) are my favorite Discworld subseries, and I greatly enjoyed reading this installment. The basic premise of needing to stop someone before they can build a clock that will trap Time and freeze the universe in one moment (therefore bringing about the End of the World) is an interesting one, but it's the characters involved that are the real star of the show. There are some familiar characters, and some new ones, and they all have really neat character arcs. aucune critique | ajouter une critique

Everybody wants more time, which is why on Discworld only the experts can manage it -- the venerable Monks of History who store it and pump it from where it's wasted, like underwater (how much time does a codfish really need?), to places like cities, where busy denizens lament, "Oh where does the time go?" While everyone always talks about slowing down, one young horologist is about to do the unthinkable. He's going to stop. Well, stop time that is, by building the world's first truly accurate clock. Which means esteemed History Monk Lu-Tze and his apprentice Lobsang Ludd have to put on some speed to stop the timepiece before it starts. For if the Perfect Clock starts ticking, Time -- as we know it -- will end. And then the trouble will really begin... Aucune description trouvée dans une bibliothèque |

This novel is a fun adventure with an unexpected twist. I love love love Susan and can't deny the insights given to a box of chocolates. The concept of paying your debts is explored and the five horsemen of the apocalypse ride out, an expression of embracing old, returned companions.
For me, this book felt much faster than [The Truth]. Maybe it was the chocolates. (
