Terry Pratchett's final Discworld novel, and the fifth to feature the witch Tiffany Aching.
A SHIVERING OF WORLDS
Deep in the Chalk, something is stirring. The owls and the foxes can sense it, and Tiffany Aching feels it in her boots. An old enemy is gathering strength.
This is a time of endings and beginnings, old friends and new, a blurring of edges and a shifting of power. Now Tiffany stands between the light and the dark, the good and the bad.
As the fairy horde prepares for invasion, Tiffany must summon all the witches to stand with her. To protect the land. Her land.
There will be a reckoning. . . .

What reviewers said
âFans will also find plenty of well-loved elements: exuberant wordplay, vaudevillian humor, the rambunctious blue-skinned Nac Mac Feegle, and-beneath it all-a susurrus of shivery archetype and myth. Pratchettâs final work is a tour de force of compassion, great wit, and gleeful storytelling.â
âThere is something deeply suitable about the significant focus here on legacy and what is left behind. Savor this one; itâs literally the last authorized book coming.â
âTerry was one of our greatest fantasists, and beyond a doubt the funniest.â
âA Terry Pratchett book is a small miracle.â
âDiscworld is one of the very most fabulous creations in all of literature.â
âNo writer in my lifetime has given me as much pleasure and happiness.â
