Lords and Ladies

Terry Pratchett is an absolutely hilarious author, best known for his Discworld series. Discworld is a world very much like our own in some ways and completely different in other ways and it is the setting for many satirical plot. Lords and Ladies takes place in the very tiny and rural Kingdom of Lancer with Lancer's three witches returning from several months away (that story is told in Witches Abroad). Upon returning back one of the witches learns that she will be marrying the king and the other two set about trying to thwart the impeeding elf invasion. Unless you are a reader of these books this probably makes very little if any sense at all, however if you like satire you must try Terry Pratchett and it's better to just jump in and go along until things start to make sense.
