“Pratchett’s unique blend of comedy and articulate insight is at its vibrant best. Full of rich humor, wisdom, and eventfulness.” —Horn Book (starred review)
By the beloved and bestselling grandmaster of fantasy, Sir Terry Pratchett, this is the third in a series of Discworld novels starring the young witch Tiffany Aching.
When the Spirit of Winter takes a fancy to Tiffany Aching, he wants her to stay in his gleaming, frozen world. Forever. It will take all the young witch's skill and cunning, as well as help from the legendary Granny Weatherwax and the irrepressible Wee Free Men, to survive until Spring.
Because if Tiffany doesn't make it to Spring, Spring won't come for anyone.
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.
And don’t miss Terry Pratchett’s hilarious and wise Discworld novel The Amazing Maurice and His Educated Rodents!
Reviews are written only by people that have an active subscription and have rated the book.
If you know the story of Tiffany Aching, you will not be disappointed with this 3rd novel in the series. Nor can any complaint whatsoever be made about the performance of Stephen Briggs (a mastery).
My only complaint is the utterly useless and what's worse, loud melody inserted in between chapters - whatever for?!
Other than that - those were 8 hours very well spent.

Hade nästan varit bättre utan story. Det var lite luddigt. Inget bra slut, känns nästan som bitar inte förklarades alls. De byggde bara upp en massa sen blev det ingen bra avrundning. Hade varit bättre om slutet var lika bra som början. Visserligen samma upplägg som de övriga i serien. Men mellandagarna var mkt bra!

The book was great!
But the music in between some chapters was unnecessary and I didn’t like it
