Elephants, werewolves, and ruby tights (oh my!) collide in this clever Discworld tale rich in mystery, myth, intrigue, and a dollop of diplomacy from the legendary New York Times bestselling author Terry Pratchett.
Everyone knows that the world is flat, and supported on the backs of four elephants. But werent there supposed to be five? Indeed there were. So where is the fifth elephant?
Commander Sam Vimes of the Ankh-Morpork constabulary is the man to find out. A copper through and through, hes been invited to attend a royal function as a diplomat, ambassador to the mysterious, fat-rich country of Uberwaldcomplete with ruby tights.
Of course where cops go, crime follows. An attempted assassination and a theft soon lead to a desperate chase from the low halls of Discworld royalty to the legendary fat mines of Uberwald, where lard is found in underground seams along with tusks and teeth and other precious ivory artifacts. Its up to the dauntless Vimes to solve the puzzle of the missing pachyderm. After all, thats what he does.
Only there are monsters on his trailbright, fast, toothy werewolves. And theyre catching up.
The Discworld novels can be read in any order but The Fifth Elephant is the 5th book in the City Watch collection.
