| Plot Summary of Witches Abroad |
"Three witches have inherited the fairy godmother stick, and now their mission is to make sure a servant girl in a distant country DOESN'T marry a prince. Very humorous."
Jenni, Resident Scholar
|
"Magrat inherits a fairy godmother's wand, and the three witches - Granny, Nanny, and Magrat - are off on a long journey to Genoa, Discworld's answer to New Orleans, to save Ella from marrying the handsome prince. Not quite as good as Witches Abroad, but still worthwhile."
Ivy, Resident Scholar
