You must defeat Sheng Long to stand a chance.



I started a reread of Hogfather a couple days ago and just noticed the thread. I've always thought this was one of Pratchett's weaker books plot-wise, but I've been having a lot of fun with it. I just got to the bit where the wizards brew up the hangover cure for the Oh God of Hangovers and I just love all the idiot banter between the wizards. And the main difference between them and a bunch of bickering idiot old men is that Death's granddaughter can walk through the walls carrying a body and Ridcully's response is "Putting down or taking away?" Or that the magic hangover cure is a bunch of "my brother always used to swear by" folk remedies except with a magic ball of light added to enhance the effects.
