yendiOkay, I've known for a while that the next Pratchett book was called Thud!, and I'd figured out that it would involve a dwarf/troll conflict (since Thud is the name of the game based on a famous dwarf/troll war). But one of the Discworld mailing lists I'm on has published the initial blurb, and it's a Vimes book:
Koom Valley? That was where the trolls ambushed the dwarves, or the dwarves ambushed the trolls. It was far away. It was a long time ago. But if he doesn't solve the murder of just one dwarf, Commander Sam Vimes of Ankh-Morpork City Watch is going to see the battle fought again, right outside his office. With his beloved Watch crumbling around him and war-drums sounding, he must unravel every clue, outwit every assassin and brave any darkness to find the solution. And darkness is following him.
I do not want to wait until October, dammit.
