The funniest, most insighftul, clever and totally bonkers parody of all things Shakespeare, filled to the brim with Pratchett's signature style. 'Pratchett uses his other world to hold up a distorting mirror to our own' The Times 'The Discworld novels have always been among the most serious of comedies, the most relevant and real of fantasies' Independent 'An enduring, endearing presence in comic literature' Guardian Witches are not by nature gregarious, and they certainly don't have leaders. Granny Weatherwax was the most highly regarded of the leaders they didn't have. But even she found that meddling in royal politics was a lot more difficult than certain playwrights would have you believe... Readers love Wyrd Sisters: 'Witty, well written, amusing anecdotes, Shakespeare/real life parody, DEATH, witches it has to be Terry Pratchett' Goodreads reviewer, 'There were so many instances here where I didn't only have to chuckle but laugh out loud . . . the entire book was full of fast-paced fun' Goodreads reviewer, 'Pratchett's version of what would happen if Hamlet and Macbeth had been set in the Discworld universe . . . there are too many aspects of awesomeness about this book' Goodreads reviewer, 'Brilliant and funny and wonderfully insightful' Goodreads reviewer, 'Wyrd Sisters is the funniest and the wittiest Macbeth parody with the familiar Pratchett's style' Goodreads reviewer, 'A great story, hilarious, witty, full of irony and so well written. This has been my favourite Discworld volume so far, and I am so happy I still have so many to go through!' Goodreads reviewer,
