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!
