Guards! Guards! by Terry Pratchett is about secret order that decides to
summon a dragon with magic to terrorize the city of Ankh-Morpork in
order to stage their own hero to defeat it and become the next ruler of
the city. However their plans go terribly wrong and it's up to the night
watch to defeat the dragon and apprehend those responsible for
summoning it. I found the book to be rather amusing even if it's not one
of my favorites in the Discworld series. I particularly enjoyed the
humorous portrayal of secret societies and the larger than life
character of Lady Ramkin, noblewoman and dragon expert.
