Fantasy
* * * * Stars (Great!)
Tiffany Aching is a young woman with a good head on her shoulders. She’s also a fledgling witch whose world is being invaded by an evil queen whose favorite attack seems to be invading dreams. Tiffany has to use her witchy ways to defeat the queen and save her world. She has little experience in this, as she’s only just discovered that she IS a witch, so she needs all the help she can get. Fortunately, there’s an enchanted frog-lawyer and a bunch of tiny, blue Nac Mac Feegles on her side.
You’re going to like Tiffany Aching. She’s a nice blend of practical, sarcastic, and wise. She may be young, but she’s entertaining and wily. Since these are just the beginning of her adventures, we have a lot to look forward to. Expect great things from Tiffany Aching, as she kicks some serious evil queen butt in this, her first book.
