I Shall Wear Midnight

(Discworld Novel 38)

By: Terry Pratchett, Paul Kidby

Narrated by: Tony Robinson

Tiffany Aching, the young witch from The Wee Free Men, A Hat Full of Sky and Wintersmith is back in a new adventure featuring Discworld characters both familiar to fans (such as Tiffany, the Wee Free Men, Granny Weatherwax and Nanny Ogg) and new (meet Wee Mad Arthur, the Nac Mac Feegle on the City Watch whose only previous appearance was a brief cameo in Feet of Clay and city witch Mrs Proust - a fabulous Pratchett creation). Oh, and there's a magic book or two, a twist through time, a Cunning Man - and a Giant Man of chalk...

Critic reviews

Teen witch Tiffany is one of [Pratchett's]most formidable creations yet

Tiffany Aching fans should be ecstatic.

Writing at the height of his powers . . . he makes us laugh a lot.

funny

... everything gets very funny

Adventure, magic and the usual dark, dry humour will keep you entertained from start to finish.

There are entertaining twists, humorous moments, and just enough romance to leave everyone happy at the end of the book.

a must for all Pratchett fans

As the well-places plot unravels in Pratchett's inimitable style, it goes without saying that everything gets very funny.
Like Tiffany, Pratchett has always known that "laughter helps things slide into the thinking".

(Alex Sarll, Sarah O'Meara)

Pratchett's book is suffused with an awareness of the thankless exhaustion which awaits people in the caring professions.
