Terry Pratchett's final Discworld novel, and the fifth to feature the witch Tiffany Aching.
A SHIVERING OF WORLDS
Deep in the Chalk, something is stirring. ¬The owls and the foxes can sense it, and Tiffany Aching feels it in her boots. An old enemy is gathering strength.
This is a time of endings and beginnings, old friends and new, a blurring of edges and a shifting of power. Now Tiffany stands between the light and the dark, the good and the bad.
As the fairy horde prepares for invasion, Tiffany must summon all the witches to stand with her. To protect the land. Her land.
There will be a reckoning. . . .

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, ...
