Book Description
“[Pratchett’s] books are almost always better than they have to be, and Going Postal is no exception, full of nimble wordplay, devious plotting and outrageous situations, but always grounded in an astute understanding of human nature.” — San Francisco Chronicle The 33rd installment in acclaimed New York Times bestselling author Sir Terry Pratchett's Discworld series, a splendid send-up of government, the postal system, and everything that lies in between. Suddenly, condemned arch-swindler Moist von Lipwig found himself with a noose around his neck and dropping through a trapdoor into . . . a government job? By all rights, Moist should be meeting his maker rather than being offered a position as Postmaster by Lord Vetinari, supreme ruler of Ankh-Morpork. Getting the moribund Postal Service up and running again, however, may prove an impossible task, what with literally mountains of decades-old undelivered mail clogging every nook and cranny of the broken-down post office. Worse still, Moist could swear the mail is talking to him. Worst of all, it means taking on the gargantuan, greedy Grand Trunk clacks communication monopoly and its bloodthirsty piratical headman. But if the bold and undoable are what's called for, Moist's the man for the job—to move the mail, continue breathing, get the girl, and specially deliver that invaluable commodity that every being, human or otherwise requires: hope. The Discworld novels can be read in any order but Going Postal is the first book in the Moist von Lipwig series.

Book Description
Moist von Lipwig was a con artist, a fraud and a man faced with a life choice: be hanged, or put Ankh-Morpork's ailing postal service back on its feet. It was a tough decision. With the help of a golem who has been at the bottom of hole in the ground for over two hundred years, a pin fanatic and Junior Postman Groat, he's got to see that the mail gets through. In taking on the evil chairman of the Grand Trunk Semaphore Company, and a midnight killer, he's also got to stay alive. Getting a date with Adora Bell Dearheart would be nice, too. In the mad world of the mail, can a criminal succeed where honest men have failed and died? Perhaps there's a shot at redemption for man who's prepared to push the envelope...

Book Description
Have you ever wondered what your letter carrier is doing when you're not looking? What do some of them do with the mail when theyre all alone in their vehicle or working the graveyard shift at night? Did you ever have mail disappear or mail that looks tempered with? Are you comfortable with the mailman who delivers your mail? Are any of the workers criminals, peeping toms or child molesters? GOING POSTAL answers all of those questions and gives true examples of what has happened in cities around the country. What are the unions in the Postal Service really like? Are they there to help the Postal Service to become stronger and better or are they simply there to undermine the business and get employees off the hook when they commit heinous behaviors? What about higher level management at the upper levels of the organization? Do they treat their employees well or is profane abuse a common behavior by those in charge? Does the Postal Service employee dangerous individuals, especially persons that may be a hazard to your children? The book tells it all in a true, accurate format. A must read!
