Tiffany Aching
Oct. 1st, 2015 11:02 pmI am really enjoying my reread of the Tiffany Aching arc. I am so impressed by the sense of place, of belonging to the land, of needing the land and it needing you back. I would give my eye-teeth to have come up with even one of Pratchett's sentences about the Chalk.
I love that in these books, the most important kind of magic is the ordinary, everyday kind--the kind that's mainly hard work and perseverance and compassion for one's fellow man--and the most significant thing about the deepest sort magic is that it probably shouldn't be practiced at all.
Now I'm reading I Shall Wear Midnight. ( Spoilers )
