Publisher's summary

ALA Best Fiction for Young Adults * ALA Booklist Editors' Choice * ALA Notable Children's Book

“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 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!

funny and true

I think this is supposed to be a YA book. Fine, read it when you are 13. But then read it again when you are 30, and again at 60. That's how you get at all the jokes and all the truths.

Oh, but this is an audible book, so I will add that the production is terrific. The main narrator really gets how a Pratchett book should be read, and the added character voices are perfect

Brilliant Reading of a Brilliant Book

Indira and Steven breathe so much life into these sensational characters. I absolutely adore the new recordings of the Discworld novels; the consistency in production and narrators helps the stories sing.

This book is delightful. Seeing Tiffany struggle as she comes of age and further into her power is an important part of her journey. And the ruminations on what makes a human are purely Pratchett.
