I have loved every book in this series, and this was an absolutely perfect conclusion. I cried so many times! I've always loved the Discworld witches...they're important to me, as a woman, especially a somewhat Type A woman. And seeing a girl dealing with growing up AND all that magic and responsibi...

Basically, I love the Tiffany Aching books–smart, heartfelt fantasy at its best. I am only sorry I hadn’t read the books before, and that there aren’t any more to discover.

Love the way that the Witches and The Watch are in the same story. Sad that this is (allegedly) the last Tiffany story however a re-read of the cycle is envisioned in my rocking-chair days.Best line: Cock-a-doodle- In no particular order, the results so far5* Good Omens: The Nice and Accurate Proph...

If your kids enjoy the Tiffany Aching books, preread this one before getting it for them.

It was very much a 'Yeah, well...

“I Shall Wear Midnight” does all the things that Terry Pratchet does well: it provides insights into human weakness, leavens them with hope and courage and spices them with a generous dash of humour.What makes this an exceptional book, even for Terry Pratchet is the development of the young witch of...

This book started off in a deceptively simple fashionin which, initially, I felt rather too much was being told rather than shown. This simplicity soon, however, gave way to stark and sober horror, as young witch Tiffany is faced with an everyday situation of family violence and abuse. The suggestio...

There's just something about the Discworld books. I pick one up, thinking to myself that I'll read a few pages, and surface an hour or two later having read hundreds. I devour them, or they devour me. This last Tiffany Aching book is no exception at all. I find myself unable to write a review of a D...
