Rated The Shepherd's Crown 8/10

This book wraps many of the story arcs from the previous Aching books, with Tiffany stepping in the shoes of Granny Weatherwax who passes away, the queen of the elves finds redemption and friendship, and even Mrs. Earwig turns out to be not as completely useless as she’d seemed in the previous books.

As also said in the afterword by Rob Wilkins, Pratchett didn’t get to finish this book as much as he would have finished the books before. So while the story is all there, it is lacking in some of the finesse and humor of Pratchett’s other writings. The plot feels rushed at times, but I’m just grateful that Sir Terry rounded off Tiffany’s adventures for us in his final days.
