the beloved and bestselling grandmaster of fantasy, Sir Terry Pratchett, this is the fourth in a series of Discworld novels starring the young witch Tiffany Aching.

As the witch of the Chalk, Tiffany Aching performs the distinctly unglamorous work of caring for the needy. But someone—or something—is inciting fear, generating dark thoughts and angry murmurs against witches. Tiffany must find the source of unrest and defeat the evil at its root. Aided by the tiny-but-tough Wee Free Men, Tiffany faces a dire challenge, for if she falls, the whole Chalk falls with her. . . .

low key a horror novel

5 stars

this feels like an old-school Discworld novel. the structure's really solid, the writing's good, there are some funny moments, and in this case, there are some truly frightening moments as well. the otherworldly antagonist in this book is genuinely scary, and some of the scenes where he's approaching give legit horror movie vibes. nice. also, I love Preston, i love where Tiffany finds herself by the end of the book, i did like seeing all the older witches again, in short, everything i liked about the first two Tiffany Aching books is back, and in full force. i can't wait to read The Shepherd's Crown.

Daudz tumšāka par iepriekšējām Tifānijas grāmatām, bet prečetiski patiesa.

Like almost every thing from Pratchet, a very readable story. My only objection is towards the shame of the duchess. The implication that she came from a low and not so respectable profession made her vanity shameful does not sit well with me.

Another Tiffany Aching/Nac Mac Feegle book, in pretty much the same vein as the previous. If you liked the previous books, you'll like this; if you didn't, you probably won't. A fun read (like all Discworld books) but nothing extremely new or surprising.

I always think there's a great fondness when Pratchett writes about the Chalk though maybe that's because it is obviously modelled on his current home of Wiltshire (if you were in doubt, the appearance of a giant with no trousers clinches it). I think Tiffany Aching has grown up quite considerably from when she first appeared and I wouldn't have automatically said this was a young adult book. Lots of charming, funny and tender moments makes this a fantastic read whatever age you are.
