ACUBENS (Alpha Cancri). Though Bayer’s Alpha star, Acubens, at faint fourth magnitude (4.25), ranks only fourth in the constellation Cancer, after Beta (Al Tarf), Delta (Asellus Australis), even Iota, probably because of its position as a southern claw of the celestial crab.

Men at Arms is a fantasy novel by British writer Terry Pratchett, the 15th book in the Discworld series, first published in 1993. It is the second novel about the Ankh-Morpork City Watch on the Discworld. Lance-constable Angua von Überwald, later in the series promoted to the rank of Sergeant, is introduced in this book. Lance-constable (in the course of the novel promoted to Acting-constable) Detritus is introduced as a new member of the watch as well, though he had already appeared in other Discworld novels, most notably in Moving Pictures. Also notable is the only appearance of Lance-constable Cuddy (also promoted to Acting-constable).
