Opis

Tiffany Aching is a trainee witch -- now working for the seriously scary Miss Treason. But when Tiffany witnesses the Dark Dance -- the crossover from summer to winter -- she does what no one has ever done before and leaps into the dance. Into the oldest story there ever is. And draws the attention of the wintersmith himself.

As Tiffany-shaped snowflakes hammer down on the land, can Tiffany deal with the consequences of her actions? Even with the help of Granny Weatherwax and the Nac Mac Feegle -- the fightin', thievin' pictsies who are prepared to lay down their lives for their "big wee hag."

Wintersmith is the third title in an exuberant series crackling with energy and humour. It follows The Wee Free Men.

From the Hardcover edition.

O autorze

Terry Pratchett was the acclaimed creator of the global bestselling Discworld series, the first of which, The Colour of Magic, was published in 1983. In all, he was the author of over fifty bestselling books which have sold over 100 million copies worldwide. His novels have been widely adapted for stage and screen, and he was the winner of multiple prizes, including the Carnegie Medal. He was awarded a knighthood for services to literature in 2009, although he always wryly maintained that his greatest service to literature was to avoid writing any.
