" One of my favorite Discworld novels so far. The things he write are always amusing, but they are also so deep and profound it gives you goosebumps - between your bursts of laughter. " I love Sir Terry Pratchett, and have done so since the first book I picked up by him 11 years ago. " Pratchett and the Witches plus Shakespeare as a dwarf. " Excellent intro to the witches of Lancre, and it's a great mash-up of a lot of Shakespearean plays. Especially if you are an abstract thinker! " - Megan, " Basically, this book was a little crazy-but I think it is a fun read. A King is murdered! A lost heir is found.ghosts of dead people.It's really cool! " - Kate, Like the three witches from us the story line is rather similar to many of Shakespeare's plays. The story has many literary allusions to Shakespeare. I thought that the description was innovative. " I got this book at The Globe Theatre in London. Hope I can speak intelligently at book club tonight.
At times the story was very compelling at other times, I hardly understood what was happening. I had a difficult time getting into the book (because of the device?).
The story line was kind of stop and go for me. I don't think this was the best format to read this book. " This was the first book I read completely on a tablet. loved the interplay of the 3 witches, the romance between magrat and the fool, and tomjon and the players. " woot! I was just in the mood for a good pratchett, and this was it. Overall Performance: Narration Rating: Story Rating:.All in all a fun read, but I wouldn't expect anything else from Mr. There is some very clever and funny banter between the three witches (and Granny Weatherwax, as always is a brilliant character) and the parody of/respect given towards Shakespeare's Macbeth is also pretty brilliant.
"This was a pretty enjoyable read, and one of the earlier Discworld books that I had skipped over. This is the sixth book in the Discworld series. Terry Pratchett's vividly imaginative story takes you on a journey with hunchbacked monarchs, lost crowns, disguised heirs, refueling broomsticks, and frightening thunderstorms, as the three sisters battle the odds to restore the rightful king to the throne. Their interference in royal politics causes kingdoms to wobble, crowns to topple, knives to flash, and citizens to shudder in fear. In Wyrd Sisters, the enchanting world of Discworld is turned upside down by 3 meddling witches: Granny Weatherwax, Nanny Ogg, and Magrat Garlick.
