Born into the mysterious world of an ancient alchemical order, Donna has always been aware of the dark feud that exists between the alchemists and the fey. Her own mother - bound by a dark Faerie curse - has been confined to a hospital bed for as long as she can remember . . . But now there is a chance to release her, and Donna will stop at nothing until she is free.
Armed with her own brand of powerful magic, Donna must face the fearsome Wood Queen in order to save her mother. But in the Ironwood - a place that haunts Donna's dreams - there is far greater and more dangerous magic already at work . . .

—— Jim Dean , YA Yeah YeahPratchett's final work is a tour de force of compassion, great wit, and gleeful storytelling.
—— Publishers Weekly (starred review)A worthy crown to Terry Pratchett’s phenomenal artistic achievement.
—— Michael Dirda , Washington PostThe last Discworld offering is a poignant farewell, both to Pratchett's readership and to his extraordinary world.
—— Imogen Russell Williams , MetroAs ever in Pratchett's work, empathy and compassion are foregrounded. With its humour and humaneness, it reminds us, too, that its author, as Tiffany says of her deceased friend, 'is . . . was . . . unfollowable.'
—— James Lovegrove , Financial TimesSomething to treasure
—— Kirkus ReviewsFunny, sad and extremely moving . . . most will likely consider it one of the strongest, and certainly one of the most – possibly the most – moving [of the Discworld novels].
