Men at Arms: A Novel of Discworld - Discworld

Corporal Carrot has been promoted! He?s now in charge of the new recruits guarding Ankh-Morpork, Discworld?s greatest city, from Barbarian Tribes, Miscellaneous Marauders, unlicensed Thieves, and such. It?s a big job, particularly for an adopted dwarf. But an even bigger job awaits. An ancient document has just revealed that Ankh-Morpork, ruled for decades by Disorganized crime, has a secret sovereign! And his name is Carrot . . .

And so begins the most awesome epic encounter of all time, or at least all afternoon, in which the fate of a city?indeed of the universe itself!?depends on a young man?s courage, an ancient sword?s magic, and a three-legged poodle?s bladder.
