I Shall Wear Midnight, by Terry Pratchett: 2.5/5

Posted on February 2, 2011 by Audrey

I Shall Wear Midnight. Terry Pratchett. 3 stars. Tiffany, now sixteen, must face down The Cunning Man, a creature that spreads the fear and hatred of witches. A fine Discworld book, but a poor ending for an otherwise great, standalone young adult series. Best Thing: The Nac Mac Feegle - Funny as always. Worst Thing: Name Dropping. Pratchett discards most of the elements that I think are central to the Tiffany Aching books in favor of mentioning as many other Discworld characters as he possibly can.

Good for: Discworld fans, and I suppose any Tiffany Aching fans (like me) who can’t help themselves from picking it up. But sadly I think you really need some other Discworld knowledge to enjoy this one.
