Book Reviews of Wintersmith
Book Review: A little too confusing.
Summary: 4 Stars
This is another good Feegle story, although there were a lot of parts about it that confused me. Still, I read Discworld books more for the characterizations than the plot, so it was satisfying to see our old friends the Nac Mac Feegle and Tiffany. Tiffany is still only 13 so that much of the world's experience is beyond her, though she does all right with the help of Granny Weatherwax and Nanny Ogg.
Summary of Wintersmith
Tiffany Aching is a trainee witch - now working for the seriously scary Miss Treason. But when Tiffany witnesses the Dark Dance - the crossover from summer to winter - she does what no one has ever done before and leaps into the dance. Into the oldest story there ever is. And draws the attention of the wintersmith himself.As Tiffany-shaped snowflakes hammer down on the land, can Tiffany deal with the consequences of her actions? Even with the help of Granny Weatherwax and the Nac Mac Feegle - the fightin', thievin' pictsies who are prepared to lay down their lives for their "big wee hag."
Wintersmith is the third title in an exuberant series crackling with energy and humour. It follows The Wee Free Men.
