    While I adore anything by Terry Pratchett, I admit that this may be my least-favorite of his works. Though his parody of "The Phantom of the Opera" is masterfully done, I found the conclusion disappointing, but inevitable. Another reason to love Terry Pratchett - he presents reality in a fantastic setting, but he presents it truly. No sugar-coated, inorganic, cut-and-paste happy ending in the Discworld. He looks at the world and tells it like it is.

  • Not my favourite Discworld novel, nor my favourite Lancre Witches novel.
    I don't know if it's because I don't know the opera that well, but it seems to lack something.
    I liked Andrè though.

  • The novel that moved the balance of my preferences from the "City Watch" sub-series to the "Witches" one!
