"Night Watch turns out to be an unexpectedly moving novel about sacrifice and responsibility, its final scenes leaving one near tears... Terry Pratchett may still be pegged as a comic novelist, but... he's a lot more." -- Washington Post Book World

Getting knocked back in time thirty years, Sam Vines, Commander of the Ankh-Morpork City Watch experiences a day like no other in which past, present, and future collide with hilarious -- and poignant -- results in this rollicking Discworld adventure from Terry Pratchett.

One moment Commander of the City Watch Sam Vimes is chasing a murderer across the rooftops of Ankh-Morpork. The next, he's lying in the street below, naked -- and back in his own tough past thanks to a lightning strike and a group of meddling, time-manipulating monks.

It's a dark Discworld that is all too familiar. Worse, the cop-killing psychopath he'd been pursuing has been transported back with him, and it's the eve of a deadly street rebellion that took a few good (and not so good) lives. Vimes is determined to do his duty -- track down the murderer and change the outcome of the rebellion. By changing history he might just save some worthwhile necks, and steer a novice watchman straight -- an impressionable young copper named Sam Vimes.

But if he succeeds, Sam knows it could cost him the future -- including the job and the family he loves.
