The first in a series of Discworld novels starring the young witch Tiffany Aching.
A nightmarish danger threatens from the other side of reality. . . .
Armed with only a frying pan and her common sense, young witch-to-be Tiffany Aching must defend her home against the monsters of Fairyland. Luckily she has some very unusual help: the local Nac Mac Feegle—aka the Wee Free Men—a clan of fierce, sheep-stealing, sword-wielding, six-inch-high blue men.
Together they must face headless horsemen, ferocious grimhounds, terrifying dreams come true, and ultimately the sinister Queen of the Elves herself. . . .

    First you get the test, and then afterward you spend years findin’ out how you passed it. It’s a bit like life in that respect.”

    this where I learn about the witches’ school?” said Tiffany.
    There was a moment of silence.
    “Witches’ school?” said Mistress Weatherwax.
    “Um,” said Miss Tick.
    “You were being metapahorrical, weren’t you?” said Tiffany.
    “Metapahorrical?” said Mrs. Ogg, wrinkling her forehead.
    “She means metaphorical,” mumbled Miss Tick.
    “It’s like stories,” said Tiffany. “It’s all right. I worked it out. This is the school, isn’t it? The magic place? The world. Here. And you don’t realize it until you look. Do you know the pictsies think this world is heaven? We just don’t look. You can’t give lessons on witchcraft. Not properly. It’s all about how you are . . . you, I suppose.”

    Big women were valued on the Chalk. Farmers liked big wives. Farmwork was hard, and there was no call for a wife who couldn’t carry a couple of piglets or a bale of hay
