The funniest, most insighftul, clever and totally bonkers parody of
all things Shakespeare, filled to the brim with Pratchett's
signature style. 'Pratchett uses his other world to hold up a
distorting mirror to our own' The Times 'The Discworld novels have
always been among the most serious of comedies, the most relevant
and real of fantasies' Independent 'An enduring, endearing presence
in comic literature' Guardian Witches are not by nature gregarious,
and they certainly don't have leaders. Granny Weatherwax was the
most highly regarded of the leaders they didn't have. But even she
found that meddling in royal politics was a lot more difficult than
certain playwrights would have you believe... Readers love Wyrd
Sisters: 'Witty, well written, amusing anecdotes, Shakespeare/real
life parody, DEATH, witches it has to be Terry Pratchett' Goodreads
reviewer, 'There were so many instances here where I didn't only
have to chuckle but laugh out loud . . . the entire book was full
of fast-paced fun' Goodreads reviewer, 'Pratchett's version of what
would happen if Hamlet and Macbeth had been set in the Discworld
universe . . . there are too many aspects of awesomeness about this
book' Goodreads reviewer, 'Brilliant and funny and wonderfully
insightful' Goodreads reviewer, 'Wyrd Sisters is the funniest and
the wittiest Macbeth parody with the familiar Pratchett's style'
Goodreads reviewer, 'A great story, hilarious, witty, full of irony
and so well written. This has been my favourite Discworld volume so
far, and I am so happy I still have so many to go through!'

Discworld novels are all 10/10 reads, so that's a given. We're all buying these editions for the way they look though... and they look incredible. The font is large and easy to read so, the book is thicker than expected - a substantial and attractive addition to any shelf.
