Witches #1:9780063385542 Witches #2:9780063385559 Witches #3:9780063385566 Chaos and hilarity ensue when a young woman becomes the first female wizard, upending the Discworld in this bitingly funny tale from internationally bestselling author Sir Terry Pratchett. A little knowledge is a dangerous thing, but it's not half so bad as a lot of ignorance. Everyone knows there's no such thing as a female wizard. So when a dying wizard accidentally passes on his staff of power to an eighth daughter of an eighth son, the exclusively masculine world of wizarding is thrown into a tailspin. Eskarina isn't afraid of male critics and she isn't going to relinquish this unexpected gift. With a little hocus pocus from Granny Weatherwax, the Discworld's most infamous witch (an old crone who has plenty of experience ignoring the status quo), Esk infiltrates the magical Unseen University and befriends another apprentice, a wizard named Simon. But power is unpredictable, and these bright young students soon find themselves in a whole new dimension of trouble. . . . The Discworld novels can be read in any order but Equal Rites is the first book in the Witches collection and the 3rd Discworld novel Three witches on a lonely heath. A king cruelly murdered, his throne usurped by his ambitious cousin. A child heir and the royal crown, both missing. The witches in Discworld don't have these kinds of problems--because they don't like being bossed about. They do, however, have Granny Weatherwax, the most highly regarded non-leader of their non-social coven. But when the future of the Discworld is at stake, Granny Weatherwax, Nanny Ogg, and Margat Garlick form an unlikely alliance to save a prince and restore him to the throne of Lancre. As they learn, though, it's far more complicated to stir up trouble in a castle than a certain Bard would have it, even when you've got a few unexpected spells up your sleeve. The Discworld novels can be read in any order but Wyrd Sisters is the second book in the Witches series. The Witches collection in order: Equal Rites Wyrd Sisters Witches Abroad Lords and Ladies Maskerade Carpe Jugulum A trio of witchy godmothers discovers just how difficult it can be to prevent a servant girl from marrying a prince and save a kingdom in this brilliantly funny Discworld novel from internationally bestselling author Sir Terry Pratchett. Once upon a time there was a fairy godmother named Desiderata who had a good heart, a wise head, and poor planning skills-which, unfortunately, left the Princess Emberella in the care of her other (not quite so good nor wise) godmother. Now it's up to Discworld's witches Magrat Garlick, Granny Weatherwax, and Nanny Ogg to hop on broomsticks and make for far-distant Genua to stop a wedding-to ensure a servant girl does not marry the Prince. It's a journey plagued with detours, including the occasional vampire, werewolf, and falling house (they are witches and this is a fairy tale). But the trouble really begins once these reluctant foster-godmothers arrive in Genua to torpedo this particularly enchanting "happily ever after," especially when it comes with glass slippers and a power-hungry fairy godmother who has made destiny an offer it can't refuse. As even these clever crones discover, it's hard to resist a good tale, even when the fate of a kingdom depends on it. The Discworld novels can be read in any order, but Witches Abroad is the third book in the Witches series
