  • "Tiffany Aching is a trainee witch, working for the seriously scary Miss Treason. But, when Tiffany witnesses the Dark Dance - the crossover from summer to winter, she does what none has ever done before and leaps into the dance, into the oldest story there ever is, and draws the attention of the wintersmith himself."

  • "At 9, Tiffany Aching defeated the cruel Queen of Fairyland. At 11, she battled an ancient body-stealing evil. At 13, Tiffany faces a new challenge: a boy.

He is Winter itself--snow, gales, icicles-- all of it, When he has a crush on Tiffany, he may make her roses out of ice, but his nature is blizzards and avalanches.

She'll also need her friends, from junior witches to the legendary Granny Weatherwax. They-- Crivens Tiffany will need the Wee Free Men too She'll have the help of the bravest, toughest, smelliest pictsies ever to be banished from Fairyland--whether she wants it or not. It's going to be a cold, cold season, because if Tiffany doesn't survive until Spring-- --Spring won't come."@en
  • "When the Spirit of Winter takes a fancy to Tiffany Aching, he wants her to stay in his gleaming, frozen world. Forever. It will take the young witch's skill and cunning, as well as help from the legendary Granny Weatherwax and the irrepressible Wee Free Men, to survive until Spring. Because if Tiffany doesn't make it to Spring- Spring won't come."@en
  • "A cause d'une erreur commise par la jeune Tiphaine Patraque, l'esprit de l'hiver est désormais épris d'elle. Il lui offre des roses et des icebergs, se déclare par des avalanches et la couvre de flocons. Ces désagréments ne l'empêchent cependant pas de s'occuper des affaires courantes : apprendre le secret de Pipo, attraper le fromage Horace, empêcher Annagramma Falcone de se ridiculiser."
  • "The God of Winter has fallen in love with 13-year-old apprentice witch Tiffany Aching. She enlists the support of the Wee Free Men--her toughest, craziest, and smallest friends--to bend the rules of the rites of spring and protect her world from being eternally frozen. In this energetic mix of boisterous fantasy, wonderful humor, and uncommon common sense, longtime Discworld series narrator Stephen Briggs gives a virtuoso performance, delivering every line and every character voice with just the right glee, tension, and clarity. Briggs saves his best efforts for the wee Scottish-accented "Pictsies," who are laugh-out-loud funny and endearing all at once. Tiffany Aching insists that witches don't believe in magic, but certainly Briggs and Pratchett must. Terry Pratchett's third Tiffany Aching novel is highly recommended."@en

  • "Tiffany Aching put one foot wrong, made one little mistake...and now the spirit of winter is in love with her. He gives her roses and icebergs, says it with avalanches and showers her with Tiffany-shaped snowflakes. And just because the Wintersmith wants to marry you is no excuse for neglecting the chores. So Tiffany must look after Miss Treason, learn the secret of Boffo, catch Horace the cheese and stop the gods from seeing her in the bath. With the help of Granny Weatherwax and the Nac Mac Feegles, Tiffany must work everything out. If she doesn't, there will never be another springtime..."
