Critics Review
“He is a satirist of enormous talent… Incredibly funny, compulsively readable.” – The Times “Teen witch Tiffany is one of [Pratchett’s] most formidable creations yet.”
Teen witch Tiffany is one of [Pratchett’s]most formidable creations yet * Time Out *Tiffany Aching fans should be ecstatic. * Publishers Weekly starred review *Writing at the height of his powers … he makes us laugh a lot. * The Sunday Times *funny * Oxford Mail *… everything gets very funny * Newcastle Upon Tyne Evening Chronicle *Adventure, magic and the usual dark, dry humour will keep you entertained from start to finish. * Stoke on Trent Sentinel *There are entertaining twists, humorous moments, and just enough romance to leave everyone happy at the end of the book. * Nayu’s Reading Corner: html *a must for all Pratchett fans * Mansfield Chad *
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 * Romsey Advertiser, Bucks Herald, Hampshire Chronicle Series, Blackpool Gazette *Pratchett’s book is suffused with an awareness of the thankless exhaustion which awaits people in the caring professions. * Express & Star City Final (Wolverhampton West Midlands) *About The Author
