    I was trying to narrow it down to 1 discworld book. Ive got it down to Small Gods, Jingo or Thud!.

    I also got confused whether a full stop goes after the ! Or not.

      Small gods is for sure one of my favorites!

      If there’s an exclamation mark (!) there’s generally no period (.).

          You can think of an exclamation mark like a period that’s had a line drawn above it; it takes the place of a period, rather than having both side by side.

          The exclamation mark is part of the title. I would say the hard stop goes at the end of the sentence otherwise the exclamation mark could be construed as part of the sentence and not part of the title.
