About This Item

New York: Penguin Books USA Inc.- ROC, 1988. Hard Back. Very Good/Good. 5 3/4" x 8 1/4. Kidd, Tom - Dust Jacket. 233 Pages. Authorized reprint of the Gollancz hardback. Owner's inked name on front endpaper in two small line. Otherwise an As New book with no other marks or stamps. Used book in As New condition. Dust jacket has some edge wear and a couple of small tears. Blue boards with dark blue quarter-spine and gold spine lettering. The trouble began when the three witches -- Granny Weatherwax, Nanny Ogg and Magrat Garlick-had their monthly cauldron-stirring disrupted by murder, mayhem and the sudden arrival of a royal baby. The spell sisters immediately gave the noble heir away to a passing troupe of actors-along with the customary witches' birth gifts. But the kingly ghost of the baby's father refused to let them off the hook. He demanded that Granny and her friends recover the princeling and help him wrest the kingdom away from the regicide, Felmet-a ruler who burned down houses whether they needed it or not, and believed that witches should pay taxes like everyone else! Filled with surprises, magical and otherwise-a wild ride through Discworld time and space in the hilarious tradition of The Light Fantastic and Sourcery-Wyrd Sisters is a delightful mix of fantasy and fun as only the inimitable Terry Pratchett could brew it.

Synopsis

Terry's Pratchett's profoundly irrelevetn novels, are consistent number one bestsellers in England, where they have catapulted him into the highest echelons of parody next to Mark Twain, Kurt Vonnegut, Douglas Adams, and Carl Hiaasen.Meet Granny Weatherwx, the most highly regarded non-leader a coven of non-social witches could ever have. Generally, these loners don't get involved in anything, mush less royal intrigue. but then there are those times they can't help it. As Granny Weatherwzx is about to discover, though, it's a lot harder to stir up trouble in the castle than some theatrical types would have you think. Even when you've got a few unexpected spells up your sleave.
