But now he's back in his own rough, tough past without even the clothes he was standing up in when the lightning struck...

There's a problem: if he wins, he's got no wife, no child, no future...
A Discworld Tale of One City, with a full chorus of street urchins, ladies of negotiable affection, rebels, secret policemen and other children of the revolution.
