Have read this 4 or 5 times and still find myself crying with laughter.... his escapades with the local Honey Badger are quite magnificent... would make a brilliant film....

Bizarrely, Galapagos was one of the most recent Vonneguts I've read, and Mort is the most recent Discworld book that I've re-read; I'm making my way through them again.
Both of those books are indeed amongst their best stuff. Has to be said, though; their worst stuff is merely good.
