"The Shepherd's Crown" was the last novel Terry Pratchett completed before his death, except, he didn't really get the time to finish it. The whole story is there from end to end but the book fades as it goes along. Reading it was like starting with a fully finished movie where the lighting,...
Endings are sad no matter if it happens suddenly or you know it’s been coming for some time, but all good things come to an end. The Shepherd’s Crown is the final book of Tiffany Aching journey into mature witch as well as the 41st and last Discworld book by Terry Pratchett. Not only was this the ...
I was so afraid to read this. It is Sir Terry's last work, and the last we will learn of wonderful, beloved, human Tiffany Aching and her steading, her story, her universe. It could be more perfect but it is perfect enough. The book is dedicated to Esme Weatherwax, and she is as she would be and as ...
I thought I had already said good-bye to Discworld, but when I spotted this on the shelf in a shop in London who was I to argue? 'Raising Steam' had been a let-down, and I'd frankly hoped that the rumors of another Discworld book would have meant one focused on the characters of Death and Susan Bone...
The Shepherd’s Crown is the last Tiffany Aching book and, published after the author’s death, it’s the last book in the entire Discworld series. It’s very short, not having been completely fleshed out by Pratchett before his death, but it tells a complete story. Tiffany, now a full-fledged witch, ...
Świat Dysku miałam okazję już poznać w książce "Niuch", która ogromnie przypadła mi do gustu. Obiecałam sobie wtedy, że nadrobię wszystkie książki z tego cyklu. Jednak prawdę mówiąc, jeszcze tego nie zrobiłam. Bowiem za dużo mam książek, które leżą na biurku i czekają na swoją kolej, by dołożyć do n...
SPOILERS! Granny Weatherwax is dead. (Godsdammit, why don't you just stomp all over my heart and have done with it.) And Tiffany Aching, hag of the hills, must step into her place, as the wall between worlds grows thin and the terrible, sharp creatures known as elves threaten to invade the Chal...
The last Tiffany Aching book, which just typing that makes me want to cry. There were many, many tears shed over this book, which was a perfect leave-taking for Tiffany and Pratchett himself. Even the dedication made me cry. Tiffany was my entrance into Pratchett’s books, so it seems extra-special t...
Terry Pratchett was not able to fully complete this novel before his death. This is sad but also brings us so much closer to him: In the afterword we can read how he wrote his novels, that he had several scenes on his mind and then constructed the story as he went along. Most of The Shepherd's Crown...
But otherwise I'm fine. This book has great scenes and themes in a...not so great plot. Or perhaps rather in a plot, that still would have needed some more polishing. Especially the climax felt like it was going a bit too smoothly. It was over before I could really start worrying about the charact...
