Tak začíná dvacátý pátý díl cyklu Úžasná Zeměplocha. Tentokrát vtrhla síla pokroku do největšího města Zeměplochy v podobě velkolepého objevu tisku. Skromný pisálek Mikuláš ze Slova se díky náhodě stává prvním editorem novin Ankh-Morporská Kometa a snad není ani nutné dodávat, že nic nepůjde hladce. Ne každý je totiž nadšen tímto pokrokem a ti, kdo se mluvit nepřejí, rychle objevují umění "No Comment!". Velkou komplikací je i obvinění lorda Vetinariho z vraždy svého asistenta a následný pokus o útěk. Když se pak do záležitostí plete investigativní žurnalista (s "notebookem" v ruce), je nasnadě, že může být odkryto mnohem závažnější spiknutí... Kniha je opět plná břitkého humoru, myšlenky se prohlubují a kvalita zůstává. (knihydobrovsky.cz)

Místo poslušného démona však vyvolá Mrakoplaše, jednoho z nejneschopnějších mágů Zeměplochy, který se kdysi ztratil v Podzemních rozměrech, a s ním Zavazadlo. Král démonů, novátor s moderním přístupem, aby oživil nedostatečnou fantazii démonů, začne prostřednictvím Mrakoplaše plnit Erikova přání. Avšak, jak říká pekelný král, vtip spočívá v tom, splnit každému jeho přání doslova a do písmene, a přitom mu nikdy nedat to, co si vlastně přál… (knihydobrovsky.cz)
