By the beloved and bestselling grandmaster of fantasy, Sir Terry Pratchett, this is the first in a series of Discworld novels starring the young witch Tiffany Aching.
A nightmarish danger threatens from the other side of reality. . . .
Armed with only a frying pan and her common sense, young witch-to-be Tiffany Aching must defend her home against the monsters of Fairyland. Luckily she has some very unusual help: the local Nac Mac Feegle—aka the Wee Free Men—a clan of fierce, sheep-stealing, sword-wielding, six-inch-high blue men.
Together they must face headless horsemen, ferocious grimhounds, terrifying dreams come true, and ultimately the sinister Queen of the Elves herself. . . .
The five funny and fabulous Tiffany Aching adventures are:
The Wee Free MenA Hat Full of SkyWintersmithI Shall Wear MidnightThe Shepherd’s CrownTiffany’s mentors, Granny Weatherwax and Nanny Ogg, star in the novels Equal Rites, Wyrd Sisters, Witches Abroad, Lords and Ladies, Maskerade, and Carpe Jugulum.

Gillar språket även om vissa delar var klurig dialekt. Det är en barn/ungdomsbok men har man det i åtanke så är den jättebra. Hade kunnat vara lite bättre story, men åter igen en barnbok.

A funny and easy way to get into the Discworld if you’re not already a fan.

Die Geschichte ist, wie von Pratchett gewohnt, spannend und Lustig. Der Sprecher hat seine Akzente gut im Griff und es macht Spass ihm zuzuhören.
