'They say that a little knowledge is a dangerous thing, but it is not one half

Everybody knows there's no such thing as a female wizard. So when the wizard
Drum Billet accidentally passes on his staff of power to an eighth daughter of
an eighth son, a girl called Eskarina (Esk, for short), the misogynistic world

Thankfully Granny Weatherwax, the Discworld's most famous witch, has plenty of
