The Wee Free Men<\/p>\n
You’d think that being a Young Adult Novel that Pratchett wouldn’t have put his full effort into this book. Far from it. It is a very fine novel that takes a middling Witches book and turns it into a masterpiece. Incredibly moving at times, as well as very funny. This is a must read.<\/p>\n

This was a long winded and rather self-important book. I found most of the characters rather unsympathetic, except for Alice’s mother (and she barely appears after her accident). Moody is obviously a very talented writer, and the prose is rather nicely crafted. Unfortunately the plot was practically non-existent and while some people might love the slice-of-life thing I am not one of those people. I like my stories to have some sort of sense of journey to them.
\nWell written, but empty.<\/p>\n
