MacBest by Terry Pratchett

wren47's review against another edition

3.5 - good story, although I got a bit lost in the ending. I think my audiobook player may have jumped a bit on a pivotal scene, or I got caught up in what I was doing and didn't listen hard enough.

I loved the literary references and, of course, Granny Weatherwax! I wonder if McGrath will return because I'm very keen on her journey into discovering what all this witchy business is about.

Timeline-wise I have no idea where this falls with Equal Rites...

Fun with Macbeth in Discworld.

This one was probably my favorite of the Discworld novels so far. All the characters were pretty solid. I appreciated the addition of Magrat, but I think Hwel was my favorite in the book. Looking ahead, it looks like all three will be in Witches Abroad. Trying to decide if I still want to read the books in published order or jump around.

A true Pratchett classic. I think everyone should read this one. Whether you are trying to get through Discworld or have read the Tiffany Aching series, this is a valuable addition to the stories.

I love this book, I love the banter, I love the Shakespeare references, I love the Fool so much. Death's part had me creased, and I'm so glad I finally got around to reading this one.
