Getting the moribund Postal Service up and running again, however, may be a near-impossible task, what with literally mountains of decades-old undelivered mail clogging every nook and cranny of the broken-down post office building and with only a few creaky old postmen and one rather unstable, pin-obsessed youth available to deliver it. Since his only other option is a nonliving one, Moist accepts the position-and the hulking golem watchdog who comes along with it, just in case Moist was considering abandoning his responsibilities prematurely. Instead, it's Lord Vetinari, supreme ruler of Ankh-Morpork, who promptly offers him a job as Postmaster. |a Arch-swindler Moist Van Lipwig never believed his confidence crimes were hanging offenses-until he found himself with a noose tightly around his neck, dropping through a trapdoor, and falling into-a government job? By all rights, Moist should have met his maker. |a Going postal : |b a novel of Discworld / |c Terry Pratchett. little knowing the part he has played in her family's downfall.|a ORX |b eng |e rda |c ORX |d BDX |d OCLCF |d OCLCO |d YDX |d WFB |d UMR |d HAO |d OCLCO |d NMW |d ZQP |d OCLCO Captivated by her beauty and brains, Lipwig will try anything to win her affections.
