The Shepherd's Crown

Tiffany Aching has finally got her wish.

She is a witch (and a respected one, at that). Overworked and underpaid, that’s for certain, but a witch nonetheless. Geoffrey wants to be a witch too, and thinks he can save the world by building sheds.

There will be a reckoning . . .

‘Brilliant . . .

The fifth and final book in the Tiffany Aching series - five Discworld novels by master-storyteller Terry Pratchett.

The fifth and final book in the Tiffany Aching series - five Discworld novels by master-storyteller Terry Pratchett.

The Shepherd's Crown follows Tiffany Aching as she finally gets her wish. She is a witch (and a respected one, at that). Overworked and underpaid, that's for certain, but a witch nonetheless.

Help is at hand, though, in the form of young Geoffrey and his goat. Geoffrey wants to be a witch too and thinks he can save the world by building sheds. Well, everyone has to start somewhere.

But as new friends are made, and old ones return, enemies are stirring. With her beloved chalk in jeopardy, Tiffany will face the toughest challenge of her life.

There will be a reckoning...

Brilliant... This is a book worth reading twice in quick succession.
