View source for Zoons

A race of people who, like the [[N'Tuitif]] of [[Howondaland]], are pathologically incapable of lying.
This is a drawback in a trading race, so the Zoons elect a [[Tribal Liar]] to do the negotiating for them. Other people get offended by this and think they should have picked a more acceptable term, like "diplomat" or "politician". The Zoons reply that this is exactly the point. 

The Zoons run cargo barges between [[Ankh-Morpork]] and the hinterland. They'll also carry passengers, but presumably charge high prices, and, ironically, not many people trust them.

[[Esk]] runs into them in the form of [[Amschat B'hal Zoon]], who was the current Liar at the time of {{ER}}.
