What this book is about
The sequel to Going Postal returns Moist von Lipwig, the reformed con man, now running the Ankh-Morpork Post Office. Lord Vetinari maneuvers him into taking over the Royal Bank and Mint, which are on the verge of collapse. Pratchett uses the opportunity to satirize banking, fiat currency, gold standards, and economic theory with characteristic wit and humanity. Golems, political scheming, and a very large dog named Mr. Fusspot are also involved. Light, funny, and surprisingly insightful about how money actually works.
