One day, she is looking after her little brother Wentworth by the river when she sees two Nac Mac Feegles (rowdy and mischievous pixies with Glaswegian accents) who warn her of a monster in a river. Tiffany Aching is a 9-year old girl who lives on a farm in The Chalk. She's also got the Nac Mac Feegle, the Wee Free Men, the fightin', thievin', tiny blue-skinned pictsies who were thrown out of Fairyland for being Drunk and Disorderly.Ī wise, witty and wonderfully inventive adventure set on the Discworld. To help her, she has a weapon (a frying pan), her granny's magic book (well, Diseases of the Sheep, actually) and. And now Tiffany Aching's little brother has been stolen by the Queen of the Fairies (although Tiffany doesn't think this is entirely a bad thing). There's trouble on the Aching farm – a monster in the river, a headless horseman in the driveway and nightmares spreading down from the hills.
