once again i find that the witch books don't pull me in the same way others in the Discworld series do, but i love the message in this one, and i do like vampires, so i ended up liking this one more than any of the previous witch books. Magrat was actually kind of a badass for a few minutes too, which i appreciated.
Hexen gegen Vampire - und da zu noch eine ordentliche Prise Religionskritik. Die meisten der Hexenromane sind nicht wirklich meine Lieblinge - aber der hat mich doch sehr amüsiert.
it's not very different from most other discworld books, but that's not really a bad thing. it's about witches and vampires and a hapless priest.
