About this Episode

Welcome to Nanny Ogg's Book Club: A Discworld Podcast! Join us as we read through all 41 of the fantastical and outrageous Discworld novels! This is Episode 24: The Fifth Elephant.

Vimes is dismayed to find himself sent on a diplomatic mission to Uberwald in his new role as the Duke of Ankh. He is outside his jurisdiction in a country where the lore rules and the strongest prey on the weak. But the new Low King of the dwarves is being crowned, and Ankh-Morpork needs Uberwald's resources, specifically fat. Things start going awry when a dwarven artifact is stolen, Angua disappears to deal with family matters, and Carrot resigns from the Watch. Vimes can find crimes anywhere, and it looks like this time, it's politics.
