12: Witches Abroad

Pack your bags and don't forget your toothbrush, Disc-heads! In this episode, DISC COVERERS tackles the twelfth Discworld novel, WITCHES ABROAD! While any time spent with Granny, Nanny and Magrat is a treat, we ultimately had a lot of mixed feelings about this book and its seemingly well-meaning but misguided portrayal of a real, actual religion. However, we also get snake women, Catboy Greebo and Pansexual Ethical Slut Nanny Ogg in this book as well, so it's not ALL bad. Give your broomstick a running start and let's get going! OUR CURRENT RANKING: 1. Reaper Man 2. Guards! Guards! 3. Mort 4. Witches Abroad 5. Wyrd Sisters 6. Moving Pictures 7. Equal Rites 8. Pyramids 9. Sourcery 10. The Light Fantastic 11. The Colour Of Magic 12.
