Join me on a read through of Discworld! Today we're looking at the eighteenth book, Maskerade, one of the Witches novels. It's a parody and celebration of the theatre!
Agnes Nitt has left the small town of Lancre behind to pursue her dream of becoming a famous opera singer. But her incredible talent isn't enough in a world where you have to be beautiful to achieve success.
The opera house is the stage of a sinister mystery, where people are dying in strange accidents. Granny Weatherwax begins to suspect foul play!
