Going Postal (Discworld #33) by Terry Pratchett

Going Postal
Discworld #33
Terry Pratchett




Front cover


Date read: 10 - 21 February 2016
Length: 474 pages

Moist von Lipwig was a criminal. He is given a new lease on life and set the task of sorting the Post Office. Together with his Golem employees, he begins to pick up the pieces. He tries to deliver the old mail, invents stamps, even takes on the clacks towers! Can the post office be restored to its former glory?


I quite liked Moist, but even though this story was mainly about him, I still feel like I hardly know the character. Hopefully he'll be in more novels, and I can get to know the character better.

Loved the invention of the stamps, and everything that went with it. It seems like it was such an accident, but turned out quite well!

I'll need to get watching the TV adaptation now! I've seen The Colour of Magic and The Hogfather but not Going Postal
