Summary
Nine-year-old Tiffany Aching thinks her Granny Aching, a wise shepherd, might have been a witch, but now Granny Aching is dead, and it's up to Tiffany to work it all out when strange things begin happening: a fairy-tale monster in the stream, a headless horseman, and, strangest of all, the tiny blue men in kilts, the Wee Free Men, who have come looking for the new "hag". These are the Nac Mac Feegles, the pictsies, who like nothing better than thievin', fightin', and drinkin'.
Then Tiffany's young brother goes missing and Tiffany and the Wee Free Men must join forces to save him from the Queen of the Fairies.
Critic reviews
"Written with children in mind, these are tales that any adult lover of finely paced, funny and satisfying moral story-telling will appreciate... The combination of Pratchett's genius for writing deadpan humour and Robinson's genius for reading is a match made in comedy heaven." ( The Times Audiobook Review)

Amazing! Second listen Tony Robinson is brilliant
I absolutely love Tony Robinson narrating. I'm sure he must have some Nac Mac Feegle blood in him as he sounds so authentic. Every character is distinguishable and it is riveting whilst being relaxing. 10/10

Our car journey was a giggle with this book
a toe into discworld for the 8 year old children on a four hour car journey. A lot of stopping to explain why the adults were laughing.

a childhood favourite
I absolutely loved it. I am quite fussy about narration but Tony Robinson is a joy to listen to.
