From the Inside Flap
There's trouble on the Aching farm - a monster in the river, a headless horseman in the lane and nightmares coming down from the hills. The Tiffany Aching's little brother is stolen away . . .
Tiffany's got to get him back. She has a weapon (a frying pan), her granny's magic book (well, Diseases of the Sheep, actually) and . . .
. . . she's got the Nac Mac Feegle - the fightin', thievin', blue-skinned little pictsies known as the Wee Free Men.
'Ach, stick it up yer trakkans!'
'They can tak' oour lives but they cannae tak' oour trousers!'
'Nac Mac Feegle! The Wee Free Men! Nac king! Nae quin! Nae laird!'
This wise, witty, wonderfully inventive adventure set on the Discworld has been a massive bestseller worldwide. Now this sumptuously illustrated edition - the complete text plus some extra new material - brings the whole adventure magnificently to life in glorious full colour.
Unmissable for all fans of Tiffany and the Feegles. Just don't leave it anywhere a Feegle might steal it . . .
