Making Money is the second book in the Moist von Lipwig series, but you can read the Discworld novels in any order. 'As bright and shiny as a newly minted coin clever, engaging and laugh-out-loud funny' The Times
Because money is power and certain stakeholders will do anything to keep a firm grip on both. Moist begins making some ambitious changes. Making Money by Terry Pratchett Boris Johnsons candidacy for mayor of London could have come straight from a Terry Pratchett novel: a lovable buffoon with no discernible accomplishments. Moist has many problems to solve as part of his new role: the chief cashier is almost certainly a vampire, the chairman needs his daily walkies, there's something strange happening in the cellar, and the Royal Mint is running at a loss. He doesn't really want the job, but the thing is, he doesn't have a choice. If anyone can rescue the city's ailing financial institution, it's him. Cue Moist von Lipwig, Postmaster General and former con artist.

But an affordable pair of boots, which were sort of OK for a season or two and then leaked like hell when the cardboard gave out, cost about ten dollars. A really good pair of leather boots cost fifty dollars. The Royal Bank of Ankh-Morpork is facing a crisis and needs a shake-up in management. Youre more full of bullshit than a frightened herd on fresh pasture, Mr Lipwig. He earned thirty-eight dollars a month plus allowances.
