Discworld 24: Fifth Elephant, 2022 Ed.

Commander Sam Vimes of the Ankh-Morpork City Watch is a long way from home. Sent as reluctant ambassador to Uberwald, a mysterious region inhabited by dwarfs, vampires and werewolves, Vimes must learn the art of diplomacy. Fast. But when he uncovers a mystery with ties back home, the policeman in him can`t help but investigate. What could possibly go wrong? Well, quite a lot actually. Vimes finds himself on the run through the frozen forests of Uberwald, armed with only his wits and the trousers of Uncle Vanya (don`t ask). And if he doesn`t make it, there`s going to be a terrible war. But there are monsters on his trail. They`re smart. They`re fast. They`re werewolves. And they`re catching up . . . The Fifth Elephant is the fifth book in the City Watch series, but you can read the Discworld novels in any order.
