This was the first time reading this book, and I’m glad to say it continues all my favourite parts in the “Witches” line of Discworld books. The three witches are such fun characters to follow. My new favourite character is Magrat, but the double act nature of Granny Weatherwax & Nanny Ogg gives me the same comfortable as The Two Ronnies or French & Saunders. 

Understanding there would be references to Shakespeare, I was engaged with trying to remember all the plays I remember. Turns out it has been too long because Macbeth and Hamlet are a big splodge in my memory. This is a testament to the writing; I still enjoyed the satire. 

I am wondering if there were many jokes which have not translated well to the audiobook version. I imagine the “Rincewind” books will suffer the most from the format. The footnotes became distracting at one point, when multiple were read one after another. It is distracting enough that I will consider returning to the physical books if it continues.
