Oh how I love Vimes and Vetinari... When this was first announced I was so worried that the title was foreshadowing the end of Vimes and I had to wait for a friend to read it and assure me it was OK to proceed before I picked it up. A world without him (worse, a world without Pterry) will be very sad indeed.
I'm 100% with you on Thud but a little heartbroken that you're not a Jingo fan (admittedly my adoration may stem from the fact that I grew up a Westerner in an Arabic country, so some of the details he hits on about that particular culture blend hit a little closer to home methinks...)
