a must for all Pratchett fans

Mansfield Chad

As the well-places plot unravels in Pratchett's inimitable style, it goes without saying that everything gets very funny. Like Tiffany, Pratchett has always known that "laughter helps things slide into the thinking".

Alex Sarll, Sarah O'Meara, Romsey Advertiser, Bucks Herald, Hampshire Chronicle Series, Blackpool Gazette

Pratchett's book is suffused with an awareness of the thankless exhaustion which awaits people in the caring professions.

Express & Star City Final (Wolverhampton West Midlands)

A must for all Pratchett fans, young and old.

Alex Sarll, Bradford Telegraph

There's plenty of Pratchett's trademark humour to enjoy... Fantastic fantasy and laugh-out-loud humour make this a real treat.

Stacia Briggs, Norwich Telegraph

Sure to be a huge seller over Christmas, the fantastic new teen title from the king of fantasy, Terry Pratchett....This is much darker than the previous Tiffany novels, as Tiffany grows up along with the readers. That said, it's still filled with Pratchett's trademark quircky humour.

Clare Mitchell, Yorkshire Post

If you must have more contemporary fantasy for your almost-teens, then the bogglingly prolific Terry Prachett has a new junior Discworld title: I Shall Wear Midnight

The Independant on Sunday

Although I Shall Wear Midnight, the fourth volume in the Tiffany Aching books by master of fantasy worlds Terry Pratchett is marked as being for younger readers, this is a book that older fans can't help but enjoy. Full of puns, allusions and some very odd characters, including Tiffany's ex, this is a book to laugh your way through.

Caroline Franklin, Newbury Weekly News

There are suprising revelations about other acquaintances in this action packed story with dark moments lightened by humour, not least from the wonderful Nac Mac Feegles. Full length novel for older, capable readers.

Primary Times

As Tiffany tackles domestic drudgery and the monstrous villain, Pratchett brings us reflections on the role of women, the dangers of religion and the follies of society. And, writing at the height of his powers, he makes us laugh a lot

Nicolette Jones, The Sunday Times

Pratchett's trademark wordplay and humor are much in evidence, but he's also interested in weightier topics, including religious prejudice and the importance of living a balanced life. Tiffany Aching fans, who have been waiting for this novel since Wintersmith should be ecstatic
