Ultra-condensed Thud!

War between the dwarfs and trolls - almost.
Thud! goes a troll's club on Hamcrusher's head (a deep-down mystical leader of the dwarfs) down in the dwarfs' mine.
The dwarfs aren't too keen on having a murder investigation.
Vetinari sends an investigator to report on the workings of the Ankh-Morpork Watch (police force).
Two women, a werewolf and a vampire (natural enemies), are forced to explore the confines of the mine together.
A miraculous end to the dwarf-troll skirmish (thanks to scheming by Vimes).
A talking cube is the treasure to be found.
Thou shalt not erase words!
Mr. Shine, urban legend or the true troll king, pays the Watch a visit.
Thud! is a game dwarfs and trolls play to understand each other.
The Summoning Dark (an eye with a tail) is coming for the guilty.
Death has a near-Vimes experience.
The Guarding Dark watches the Watchman.
