Following the events of the "Lords & Ladies"

Granny Weatherwax and Nanny Ogg need a 3rd witch because there needs to be 3.  But the best candidate ran off to  Ankh-Morpork  to join the Opera.  Granny & Nanny follow her to  Ankh-Morpork. 

We get Terry's version of Phantom of the Opera meets Singing in the Rain with a very long shaggy  dog story about a Yogi Berra saying. I am not sure Opera can survive being skewered b Terry Prachett.  It is a lot of fun.

Perhaps Pratchett isn't at hist best when writing a whodunnit but he's always funny right from the very first page!

This was the book that got me back into Diskworld after I had fallen away from it for a while, and for that I will always love it. But even without that nostalgia it is a tremendous piece on the nature of fiction and identity, theater and the arts, and personal choices and inner selves. All while sending up both Opera and Phantom. Fun!
