It's good right up until the last two books or so (thinking specifically of Snuff, but also Raising Steam here), where Vimes becomes a complete parody of himself, and there is also a large drop in quality.

Maybe Pratchett's disease had something to do with it.

raising steam was disjointed and its second half felt like a farewell to the discworld. and yeah, snuff is just a rambling mess.
