When the well-intentioned but flaky King of Lancre
plans a party to celebrate the birth of his daughter, he invites everyone
including the vampires of Uberwald! Of course, vampires can only go
where they are invited, and now that they are there, they have no
intention of leaving. No ordinary vampires are these, however! They are
modern, garlic-eating, cross-bearing, sun-loving vampires, yet as thirsty
as their more traditional ancestors. A trio of local witches is determined
to rout them out, joining forces with an odd young priest to do so. This
is Terry Pratchetts 23rd Discworld novel laugh-out-loud
funny and requiring no previous experience with his books to thoroughly
enjoy it.
This book is available on audiocassette.
