Discworld, Book 35

Tiffany Aching is a trainee witch — now working for the seriously scary Miss Treason. But when Tiffany witnesses the Dark Dance — the crossover from summer to winter — she does what no one has ever done before and leaps into the dance. Into the oldest story there ever is. And draws the attention of the wintersmith himself.

As Tiffany-shaped snowflakes hammer down on the land, can Tiffany deal with the consequences of her actions? Even with the help of Granny Weatherwax and the Nac Mac Feegle — the fightin’, thievin’ pictsies who are prepared to lay down their lives for their “big wee hag.”

Wintersmith is the third title in an exuberant series crackling with energy and humour. It follows The Wee Free Men.

    Tiffany Aching is growing up, and so is the intended target for this novel. After a couple of "Discworld for younger readers" novels, Tiffany's adventures start intertwining with those of other major characters (the witches, of course). Already in the earlier books Pratchett made sure that she will not be necessarily involved in future witches adventures by binding her to her plains, but she would fit in the "full" Discworld novels no problem.
    A very nice, very good, very entertaining read once again.
    Even though there are no dragons.

  • Definitely my favorite (thus far!) of the Tiffany Aching arc in the Discworld oeuvre. This is Pratchett at his best - elegant, witty, and profound.
