It was still way better than Equal Rites, his awful first try at the same subject. I give it points for the hilarious early bit about the insane God who kept banning random items, like pants and the color blue.

Note to Oyce: It's not that Pratchett is anti-feminist, but that when he writes about feminist issues head-on, he can get overly enthusiastic in a way which isn't well-integrated with the story-telling.

Jingo also seemed preachy (and too long), though the bit with Vimes' future-predicting dayplanner was genius. And I just didn't like The Thief of Time.

With those exceptions, I've really liked most of his recent books.
