I Shall Wear Midnight by Terry Pratchett
5.0
This is yet another wonderful story from Terry Pratchett's imagination. It is the fourth book that features Tiffany Aching and the Nac Mac Feegles.
The first few chapters didn't flow quite as easily as some of his other works, but after the first quarter of the book, it's a page turner.
This story sees Tiffany at a time in her life where she is becoming an adult, but already has all the responsibilities of an adult. It shows how she uses her skills, and learns some new ones too.
The story centres around the death of the Baron, Roland becoming the new Baron and his wedding to the ever so wet and soppy Letitia (a name half was between a lettuce and a sneeze). There is someone following, and out to get Tiffany, not really a someone, but a something. He is a demented soul and was once a man who used to burn witches. All Tiffany can do is help herself.
A beautiful story, and I hope we will see more of Tiffany Aching soon.
