This time, the conman Moist von Lipwig is moved from reforming the post office to reforming the central bank. Lord Vetinari does enjoy his little joke. Terry Pratchett writes fantasy, but not the dragon-and-damsel kind. His stories retell aspects of our own world in a clearer, compressed form that just happens to be consistently hilarious. They are the best modern moral tales I know of.
