Synopsis

New York Times Bestseller * Locus Award winner

Threatened with an insidious invasion from Fairyland, Tiffany Aching must bring together every witch—and the tiny-but-tough Wee Free Men—in the final Discworld novel by fantasy grandmaster Sir Terry Pratchett.

“A writer of monumental talent.” —Rick Riordan

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....

The Discworld novels can be read in any order, but The Shepherd's Crown is the fifth book in the fabulous and funny Tiffany Aching series, which is comprised of:

• The Wee Free Men
• A Hat Full of Sky
• Wintersmith
• I Shall Wear Midnight
• The Shepherd’s Crown

Tiffany’s mentors, Granny Weatherwax and Nanny Ogg, star in the novels Equal Rites, Wyrd Sisters, Witches Abroad, Lords and Ladies, Maskerade, and Carpe Jugulum.

And don’t miss Terry Pratchett’s hilarious and wise Discworld novel The Amazing Maurice and His Educated Rodents!
