This is the book of all books that began my whole discworld fanatic life, from if i'm honest childhood. The scoundrel demands that the witches be brought in and I love that fact the guards do not want to. The witches decide to hide the baby with a traveling theatre and give him three gifts as godmothers should. In this novel you see the king killed and suddenly become a ghost, you see the real heir as a baby took by loyal servants and left with the witches and you see the scoundrel over take the throne.

No matter how silly it sometimes gets you also know that no matter what they face they win. These three characters have enough spark to light a huge village and half the world with.Another thing I adore about them is they seem so foolish, so witty and sometimes downright rude but really they are a force to be reckoned with. I find it unfair so much comical genius is given to one man alone *sigh* No who am I kidding I LOVE the fact! This one is about the witches. I would play with them when ever I could get my hands on them. I would sometimes stare at them for a good hour. When I was about seven my mum had this and feet of clay, I was obsessed with the covers. This is the first book of Terry pratchett's I every read. Too overwritten, so much so, I lost the main sense of the story. It seems as he was writing for himself in a very self-congratulating manner: 'Wow, Look how very clever this sentence is!' so much that it became tedious 2/3 of the way through. Terry Pratchett is far too clever for himself, and there is too much nonsense in his writing. The witches move the kingdom into the future in order for the rightful heir to return & claim his kingdom.

The Fool falls in love w/ one of the 3 witches and then is sent to find the heir. The land, flora, & fauna of the kingdom is so unhappy they all end up in front of the Main witch's house wanting her to 'fix' the problem. The new king has visions of blood on his hands that can not be washed away. The royal heir has disappeared as has the crown. Cousin hates the kingdom & the life of the kingdom hates him. Why how clever an overly wordy, clever, twisted, and self-amusing novel based on Hamlet.Ī King is dead by the hand of his cousin & cousin's wife.
