A chilling, plucky yet playful novel for older children, and adults. Tiffany Aching’s magic has woken an evil being who has a intense loathing for all things witch. The Cunning Man is something that Tiffany has to face on her own, yet she needs help, thank goodness for The Wee Free Men and Granny Weatherwax. Please do note that while Tiffany started in The Wee Free Men as a young girl, she is now very nearly 16, and this, her fourth novel, has a deeper, darker mood that I feel is more suitable for teenagers. No matter how many times I read Terry Pratchett’s novels, his words affect me deeply, one moment sadness overwhelms, while in the next a well needed roar of laughter overtakes me while blowing a raspberry. I simply adore I Shall Wear Midnight, it touches every mood, shakes thoughts and tickles feelings, The Tiffany Aching novels are for me, a most definite must read. ~ Liz Robinson
Enter master story-teller Terry Pratchett's incredible Discworld in this fourth book in the Tiffany Aching series . . .
Tiffany Aching is discovering it's not easy being a witch . . .
People respect witches, but also fear them, and sometimes Tiffany Aching wishes that being a witch was more in-line with the having fun whizzing around on broomsticks that she'd imagined.
Then something evil awakens that stirs up all the old stories about nasty old witches, and suddenly Tiffany starts to think that even just wearing a pointy hat seems like a very bad idea . . .
Worse still, this ghost from the past is searching for one witch in particular. He's hunting for Tiffany - and he's found her . . .
