5 stars
After reading Dragons at Crumbling Castle: And Other Stories, I’ve been hooked on Pratchett’s short stories so it was only natural I track down a copy of this book.
Another fantastically amazing collection of short stories by Terry Pratchett. I loved this book. It is hilarious, creative, and so fun to read. The story-telling style is very entertaining and the stories themselves are splendidly whimsical. From wizards at war to the Wild West of Wales, this is a very enjoyable collection.
To add even more fun to the reading experience, the book also includes wonderful pictures that compliment the text well and fun font changes of certain words (such as a larger font for the word “big” and swooping letter for words that suggest movement).
A creative combination of various elements, this simple book takes the reader on amazing adventures and phenomenal journeys. An extraordinary read.
