There's more here than meets the eye. 9/2012 The Tiffany Aching books are among my favorites. I love Pratchett's absurd and delightful Discworld, and I love his witches best of all.

Well Harper Audio needs to be smacked, you don't start each chapter of a comic novel with tinkly sappy sentimental piano and synthesiser music, but otherwise this is being a delight so far. no reviews | add a review
