Overview
What We're Reading Now: "I give Terry Pratchett books to new acquaintances if I think they are cool enough to appreciate a brilliant writer who is a cross between Joseph Campbell and Monty Python. The Wee Free Men, set on the Wiltshire Downs, is a wonderful tale about a little girl who becomes den mother to a clan of Pict-sies (Celtic pixies, get it?), but the story resonates with place magic and ancient British folklore and a real feeling of awe for a beloved old granny who has the Sight. American readers who love the Nora Bonesteel character in my Appalachian Ballad novels will love Granny Akin in The Wee Free Men as much as I do." Sharyn McCrumb, Author of St. Dale From the creator of the Discworld series comes this tale of power, magic, adventure, and dreams of a young potential witch who takes on the darkest forces of Fairyland armed with just a frying pan and aided by a clan of small but fierce blue men. Now in paperback.
