Got the audiobook from Libby to listen to on a short road trip with the family. Excellent almost-all-ages audiobook, the narrator does a great job switching between character voices (which range from the adolescent Tiffany to the Nac Mac Feegles' grizzled highlands accents). A bit familiar feeling, plotwise, to those already deep into Discworld's novels, but that's not necessarily a bad thing.

Crivens! This is magical.

Charming, eloquent with beautiful prose, rich characters and a furious intent to casually impart wisdom and kindness and love in a way only Pratchett can. Certainly one of the finest Discworld novels.

Excellent family audiobook on a road-trip to Utah in spring of 2024. We all love the Nac Mac Feegle! "Ach, waley, waley, waley..."

Tiffany Aching is a fun character, and I found the Wee Free Men quite funny. I love how Tiffany isn’t content to wait for others to come save her brother. She takes charge of the situation herself.

This was cute. I think the humor is a little dated, but was mostly endearing.
