The first Discworld adventure starring young witch Tiffany Aching is a breathtaking tale of heroism and a sidesplitting introduction to the uproariously funny six-inch-high Wee Free Men, from fantasy legend and bestselling author Sir Terry Pratchett.
"Exuberant and irresistible." ---The Washington Post
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 Discworld novels can be read in any order, but The Wee Free Men is the first book in the fabulous and funny Tiffany Aching series, which is comprised of:
- 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, winner of the Carnegie Medal!
