Guards! Guards! was the first Watch book I read and while liking it, I still prefered the Wizards, it wasnt till Men-At-Arms when Angua read the journal in Vimes' belongings with the list of the widows he gave his wages to that I was really drawn into following Vimes as my favourite character. Suddenly any faults he had were forgotten about and saw him in a new light. So [b:e0d05660c6]Night Watch[/b:e0d05660c6] got my vote for the simple reason that it was practically entirly revolving around Vimes and set back in the times when Ankh Morpork was even darker and grimer than under the Patrician's rule(I'm a sucker for a good dark background). Also, with opponents like Carcer and Swing the bad guys were laid out from the beginnings and had good amounts written about them, developing them into full personalities in their own rights, which hadnt been done so much in MaA or GG in order to conceal their identities for the finale, to my mind anyway. Plus, it didnt involve Carrot hardly at all, and I dont like Carrot, never have, he's just too damned... perfect :evil:
