'Pratchett uses his other world to hold up a distorting mirror to
our own . . . he is a satirist of enormous talent' The Times The
Discworld is very much like our own - if our own were to consist of
a flat planet balanced on the back of four elephants which stand on
the back of a giant turtle, that is . . . ___________________
'Destiny is important, see, but people go wrong when they think it
controls them. It's the other way around.' Three witches - Granny
Weatherwax, Nanny Ogg and Magrat Garlick - have gathered on a
lonely heath. A king has been cruelly murdered, his throne usurped
by his ambitious cousin. An infant heir and the crown of the
kingdom, both missing . . . Witches don't have these kind of
dynastic problems themselves - in fact, they don't have leaders.
Granny Weatherwax was the most highly-regarded of the leaders the
witches don't have. But even she found that meddling in royal
politics was a lot more complicated than certain playwrights would
have you believe . . . ___________________ The Discworld novels can
be read in any order but Wyrd Sisters is the second book in the
Witches series.
