Witches Abroad is the 12th book in Terry Pratchett's Discworld series. Although it is a series, the books don't necessarily need to be read in order. There are lots of different characters in Discworld, and the books generally follow a certain character or characters, though there is some overlapping.
Witches Abroad follows the three witches; Granny Weatherwax, Nanny Ogg and Magrat. After the death of a witch named Desiderata, Magrat is left her wand, though it is not an ordinary wand. She was also a fairy godmother. Magrat is now the fairy godmother of a young girl called Emberella, and it's up to her to stop a marriage between her new charge, and the Duke, who is really a frog. Unfortunately for Magrat, Granny Weatherwax and Nanny Ogg also decide to come along...
"And instead of getting on with proper science, like finding that bloody butterfly whose flapping wings cause all these storms we've been having lately and getting it to stop."
I love Terry Pratchett's sense of humour, and the above quote actually made me laugh out loud. The beautiful thing about these books is that although it is all one series, they are so different that you don't get bored reading them. I understand that Terry Pratchett is not for every one, but he will always be one of my favourite authors, and I will always recommend him to my friends.
