I Shall Wear Midnight
Andre Norton Award 2010. Locus Award nominee 2011.
'I'm feared for the big wee hag...'
Tiffany Aching is a witch. And she thinks she's doing a
good job for the people of the Chalk. Even if the job does seem to
involve a lot of bandaging legs and cutting old ladies' toenails and not much, well, magic.
Or sleep.
But somewhere – some time – there's a tangled ball of evil
and spite, of hatred and malice, that has woken up. And it's waking up
all of the old stories too – stories about evil old witches.
Suddenly Tiffany isn't so sure she's doing the right thing. And her tiny allies – the fightin' Nac Mac Feegles – are only making
things more difficult.
Things are supposed to look better after a good night's sleep.
But they won't.
They're about to get a lot, lot worse.
And a witch has to deal with what is in front of her...

Terry Pratchett
Terry Pratchett’s work was nothing short of magical, blending satire, wit, and a deep love for the absurd with stories that could make you laugh, think, and occasionally question reality. Born in 1948 in Beaconsfield, England, Pratchett's sharp humor and keen observations of human nature started early. After a series of journalistic jobs and a stint in publishing, he found his true calling as a writer of fantasy—albeit with a twist.
Pratchett’s most famous creation, the Discworld series, is a sprawling, multi-layered universe filled with quirky characters, sharp satire, and an unrelenting exploration of the complexities of society. The series—spanning over 40 novels—introduces readers to a world supported by four giant elephants standing on the back of Great A’Tuin, the giant turtle swimming through space. It’s a place where witches, wizards, and talking cats wander through settings that are both fantastical and familiar, a perfect mirror to our own world, full of politics, absurdity, and endless curiosity.
