![]() ![]() I also love how Pratchett thinks about witches and witchcraft: it's much less about actual magic and casting spells as it is about changing the way you think about the world, the people in it, and how to handle situations. I especially appreciated his descriptions of Tiffany's (and Grandma Aching's) relationship to the land - the Chalk - as creatures f their native clay, and as shepards not just of their sheep but on the whole biome / landscape. ![]() I was also pleased to be running into Nanny Ogg and Granny Weatherwax. As a character, Tiffany reminds me a lot of Sarah Seagull: independent, thinks for herself, and has pretty good intuition about people and relationships. I wanted to start this series because the end of it is Shepard's Crown, and I'm keen to learn what happens in it, but I ant to read up to it through the Tiffany Aching series. I listened to the talking book narrated by Steven B. ![]()
