Winner of the Andre Norton Award for Young Adult Science Fiction and Fantasy

By the beloved and bestselling grandmaster of fantasy, Sir Terry Pratchett, this is the fourth in a series of Discworld novels starring the young witch Tiffany Aching.

As the witch of the Chalk, Tiffany Aching performs the distinctly unglamorous work of caring for the needy. But someone—or something—is inciting fear, generating dark thoughts and angry murmurs against witches. Tiffany must find the source of unrest and defeat the evil at its root. Aided by the tiny-but-tough Wee Free Men, Tiffany faces a dire challenge, for if she falls, the whole Chalk falls with her. . . .

The five funny and fabulous Tiffany Aching adventures are:

• The Wee Free Men
• A Hat Full of Sky
• Wintersmith
• I Shall Wear Midnight
• The Shepherd’s Crown

Tiffany’s mentors, Granny Weatherwax and Nanny Ogg, star in the novels Equal Rites, Wyrd Sisters, Witches Abroad, Lords and Ladies, Maskerade, and Carpe Jugulum.

And don’t miss Terry Pratchett’s hilarious and wise Discworld novel The Amazing Maurice and His Educated Rodents!

Wonderful Discworld/YA

So smart. Discusses adult concepts with seriousness, insight, and (of course) humor. When reading this, it feels like proudly watching your daughter become the adult she was meant to be.

adore the author and the entire series

Terry Prachett was a heinous. Every book is hilarious and endearing. the actors/story tellers make it the perfect treat.

A good conclusion to the Tiffany Aching series

Could have used a couple more voice actors but it was still well managed by talented voices .

One of Pratchett's Best

The story is wonderful and the storytelling is marvelous. I highly recommend this and all of Terry's work, whether read or listened to, especially by this group.

Nothing better.

Hello. It’s Sir Terry and a witch. How can you improve on that. Silly rule 15 words.

How do the books keep being this good?!

The penultimate book in the Tiffany Aching series of Discworld books. I am shaken by each and every book. These are the kinda of books I wish I had when I was younger, to walk with Tiffany as she learned to be a witch… and I learned how to be me! Now Tiffany is getting older and I am too, she keeps facing troubles and… this is the important part… she keeps facing them. Thank you Terry Pratchett.

Wisdom of the Characters

Terry always crafted by stories filled with both humorr, and wisdom. I always have enjoyed reading his work.

Unsurprisingly Excellent*

This is a short, and very biased review. I have loved every book written by Terry Pratchett that I've had the fortune to read (that's most, but not yet all of them), and this is no exception.

This audio version is very well done, and wonderfully performed.

*The musical flourish is used to indicate a footnote. I found this very confusing for the first few chapters, then, once I'd figured this out, very irritating for several more. Eventually, however, I did get used to it and can now say I just don't like it.
I always thought that simply saying the word "footnote", then reading the footnote, made a lot more sense and less disruption. But others might disagree, and the audiobook still ranks 5/5 (rounding up).

Exciting all the way through!

I have had a hard time getting into the other Discworld books, but the Tiffany Aching story is excellent. I listen multiple times. I just love those wee free men.

Bad Scottish voice

Don’t buy this copy buy the other one. Trust me I’m a disembodied voice in the ether
