Die Krone des Schäfers by Terry Pratchett
3.25

I feel harsh rating this book 3.25 stars as I know that it was the last thing Pratchett wrote and it wasnt finished-- but i also cant rate it any higher.
I was sooo eager to get to this. And at first, the themes and events of the novel felt like a good end to the Tiffany Aching series and the disc world overall. 

Dealing with a major characters death, introducing the first male witch, looking at the changes in the world as the rail road systeme is expanding AND a return of the faeries from "Lords and Ladies" and "The wee free men"? Sign me up please!!

But the execution was so lack-luster and convoluted.
There were too many things happening and all of these plot strings werent put together very well.  

I felt myself not caring about the characters at all (even Tiffany!!) and my investment in the story was practically non-existent at one point.

I thought Id walk away from this novel feeling absolutely soul crushed, but overall I was just a bit disappointed.
