	A lie we tell ourselves to have a purpose
	Bliss

	Father
	A strong female protagonist
	The weakest thing there is and the smallest crawling thing
	Creator
	Everything in this miserable and hellish existence
	A solution with no paradoxes

To be fair, while he could never be Royalty, his unswerving dedication to regicide is pretty Royal in and of itself. If you meet god on the road and so forth.

On the other hand, his self loathing and feeling of being a class traitor definitely would prevent him achieving Royalty even if he didn't hate kings.

Vimes is basically Hansa but angry.
He would never seek Royalty and therefore attain it easily.

Sometimes it's just nice to have a good, old fashioned, loquacious monologue. No, "I did it thirty-five minutes ago" subversion, no pithy "No Mister Bond, I expect you to die!", just an antagonist laying it all out at length and making sure everyone knows exactly what's going down and why.

We don�t actually know anything about either him knowing that the old king �spins the wheel and laughs at god� or that definitely being the actual situation.

Juggernaut Star probably knows what�s up, but there�s no evidence Jagganoth does.

The older books are mostly read by Nigel Planer, and he's fine.
The more recent ones are mostly read by Stephen Briggs, and I like him a lot more.

As a whole, I think the Discworld audiobooks are a great way to experience the series (aside from a few things where Pratchett used typography and layout very deliberately, like in Reaper Man where an entire page was filled by a single word).

Wait... The Young Ones NEIL?

On a side note... I actually like the punk-rock style they've taken with the upcoming TV series of The Watch. It's trying to be its own thing rather than cribbing direct from the books verbatim, and I'm hoping it turns out fun.
