Iam a huge fan of Terry Pratchett's discwold novels, but far and away "Carpe Jugulum" is my favorite. You'll never quite look at vampires the same way again after reading it. And this is a read that will go quickly as it is hard to put down. This is one of those rare books you will return to more than once. I've read it three times so far and the other copy on my bookshelf will be revisited again in the future. But warning. If you are humourless, rigidly straightlaced and find Tim Burton, Monty Python and sublime absurdity repugnent.. DO NOT READ THIS BOOK. ever

I usually like Terry Pratchett, but this one was just OK.

I agree with Tim above. I usually finish a Pratchett book in 2 days - this one took me 2 weeks. I kept putting it down.
I love the books with Granny Weatherwax in them - but the Vampyres just _weren't_ interesting enough. Or funny enough. And trying to figure out what Igor was saying (the lisping Frankenstein-like servant) was too difficult most of the time.
