The Night Watch really shines!

5 stars

The Night Watch is growing and expanding who is eligible to serve because there is lots of work and cases to solve. They are even delving into forensic analysis (via alchemy). Meanwhile the Patrician is being poisoned so Commander Vimes leads the investigation. Meanwhile, meanwhile Captain Carrot and Angua are investigating crimes related to golems. And it seems maybe we should have been pronouncing "nobby" as "noble" due to his bloodline.
