Description

Book Description Granny Weatherwax and Nanny Ogg, the Discworld's greatest witches, are back for an "innocent" night at the opera. Naturally there's going to be trouble, but at the same time there'll be a good evening's entertainment with murders that you can really hum to.

Editorial Reviews

Amazon.com Review

There are strange goings-on at the Opera House in Ankh-Morpork. A ghost in a white mask is murdering, well, quite a lot of people, and two witches (it really isn't wise to call them "meddling, interfering old baggages"), or perhaps three, take a hand in unraveling the mystery. Fans of the popular Discworld will be happy to see some old friends again in Maskerade, the 18th novel in the series. --Blaise Selby --This text refers to an out of print or unavailable edition of this title.

Review

• "Pratchett is as funny as Wodehouse and as witty as Waugh." --Independent

• "The great Terry Pratchett, whose wit is metaphysical, who creates an energetic and lively secondary world, who has a multifarious genius for strong parody... who deals with death with startling originality. Who writes amazing sentences." --New York Times --This text refers to an out of print or unavailable edition of this title. See all Editorial Reviews
