    Summary

    "It must be said, for the benefit of the audience, that the dragon giving orders was the second true dragon Ankh-Morpork had seen in the last ten years. It was a great white monster with black eyes, no difference between pupil, iris and sclera, and larger than the red dragon that once claimed the same palace as her own.

    While from Godfrey's point of view he had learned from Lupine Wonse's mistakes, the sheer audacity of repeating his predecessors plan step by step told a different story."

    Or,

    A dragon is summoned. Vetinari has a terrible time.

    Summary

    One blustery morning, a short note arrives on Downey's desk that says: Patrician. Sektober 13. Soon after Vetinari receives an old newspaper clipping about the death of a colleague's father that occurred forty years ago. It doesn't take long for things to go a little wahoonie shaped with a dead girl in a tree, a two hundred year old mystery, and a creature stalking the streets of Ankh-Morpork.

    Of course, throughout all of this, Vetinari is fending off unsolicited advice from his aunt (buy a lint roller!) and begins to worry that he might be developing an approximation of something like maybe feelings, for a limited value of feelings, for one Master of the Assassins Guild.

    Naturally, nothing is every entirely straight forward and some families have old secrets.

    Summary

    The rush of pleasure fills his mind like static, so strong he has to close his eyes.

    “God I could do this forever.” breathes Juno reverently.

    Afterwards, when they lie side by side on the edge of unconsciousness, those words echo back in Peter’s skull. By some seventh sense, some hardening of the air around them, he’s oddly certain Juno is thinking about it too.
