As the cauldron bubbled an eldritch voice shrieked: ‘When shall we three meet again?’ There was a pause. Finally another voice said, in far more ordinary tones: ‘Well, I can do next Tuesday.’ I just realised that I never finished writing a review for this one even though I absolutely loved it. Wyrd ...
Snuck this one in between assignments this semester. I enjoyed it immensely, but have already forgotten all the clever things I wanted to say about it, except that Granny Weatherwax is my spirit animal.
Prithee don’t be alarumed by any strange words in this review. This book has divers archaic, fake, and misused words e-printed within. It may take me a while to throw off its influence and resume speaking proper, modern English again. But did I enjoy the book? Marry, this is the first Discworld ...
Celia Imrie doing Granny, Nanny, and Magret. What more do you want?The great thing about this audio book is that you notice things that you do not when you read it.

Wyrd Sisters by Terry Pratchett is about a group of three witches who interfere in the affairs of the kingdom and use magic to try to help restore the rightful heir to the throne after the king is murdered and the killer takes his place. It is a very hilarious parody that is a mix of Macbeth and Ham...
