'They say that a little knowledge is a dangerous thing, but it is not one half so bad as a lot of ignorance.'

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 of wizardry wants nothing to do with her.

Thankfully Granny Weatherwax, the Discworld's most famous witch, has plenty of experience ignoring the status quo. With Granny's help, Esk sneaks her way into the magical Unseen University and befriends apprentice wizard Simon.

But power is unpredictable, and these bright young students soon find themselves in a whole new dimension of trouble. Let the battle of the sexes begin....

Equal Rites is the first book in the Witches series, but you can listen to the Discworld novels in any order.

The first book in the Discworld series – The Colour of Magic – was published in 1983. Some elements of the Discworld universe may reflect this.

Your mission: rescue the crew members, drive them safely back to their planet, then escape before the time-travel portal closes forever! With the help of Dooz, your faithful robot, you have been teleported to the year 3144. A team of astronauts in exploration no longer responds, and we suspect an attack from the inhabitants of the star, Hyena . . . In a few moments, it will be too late! Choose to solve this challenge on your own or with a friend! Either way, let's go!

Celebrate empathy, connection and togetherness with this touching follow-up to the bestselling interactive book Everybody Counts. Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday… any day… you may be travelling to the supermarket, the park, or the seaside. But it’s not only you – everybody travels, all the time.

This is a book jam-packed full of lovely stories, big and small, all about the human experience. It is a beautiful reminder that we are all ultimately on a journey together! Each person in this book is on their own personal journey. Whether that journey is in the pages of a story book they are reading, or on an airplane trip to meet a long-lost relative at a family reunion… we are moving, being moved, arriving and departing all the time.

Read the clues on each page about where that person is going and why. Enter their world and work out their funny, sometimes tragic, bizarre and ultimately human story on their journey through life, sometimes at the beginning and sometimes at the very end. This book can be read on many levels by many ages, with more to discover as children grow up.

This makes it a truly sentimental and timeless keepsake that teaches important lessons only when the time is right. At moments profound, funny and silly, it is a reminder that we are all in it together; a story that promotes compassion and tolerance for strangers and newcomers in their finest and worst moments and a reminder that we are all somewhere travelling along our life’s path as individuals.
