'I could tell which of my fellow tube passengers had downloaded it do svojich e-readers s bouts of spontaneous laughter' Ben Aaronovitch, Guardian Discworld je veľmi mocný ako náš vlastný - ak náš plán je navrhnutý na flat back of four elephants which stand on the back of giant korytnačka, that is . . .Change je vo vzduchu pre Moist von Lipwig, swindler, kon-man, a (naturally) hlavu Royal Bank a Post Office. A steaming, clanging new invention - a parná locomotive named Iron Girder, to be precise - is drawing astonished crowds. Suddenly to je matter národnej importancie, ktorý jazdy beží na čase. Moist does not enjoy hard work. His input v banke a post kancelárie zahŕňajú hlavné slová, ktoré nie sú heavy. Or greasy. And it certainly doesn't involve rickety bridges, runaway scheesy alebo fat controller with knuckledusters. What Moist does enjoy is being alive, which may not be a perk jazdy na new railway. Because, z kurzu, niektoré ľudia majú OBJECTIONS, a oni sa chystajú na extrémne stopy lokomotion v ich tratiach.
