This is an incredibly curious book, that explores further into how magic works in Discworld. Pratchett as ever fills the page with mind bending visual that is does feel like the pages shift like magical grimoires of the Unseen University Library. I do wish some ideas had had chance to be explored more. The ending was a little anti-climatic, but that seems to be the case for all Pratchett novels I've read thus far.

But regardless of all of that, this book is an immensely enjoyable and funny read, and you can certainly see why Granny Weatherwax made a return in future novels.
