Description

THE WITCH’S VACUUM CLEANER is Terry Pratchett’s second short story collection, featuring fourteen stories written when he was just seventeen years old. This collection includes magical and fantastical tales involving wizards, airships, submarines, and the Wild West. As a follow-up to Dragons at Crumbling Castle, these early stories show the beginnings of ideas that would later become central to Pratchett's most beloved works. Celebrated author Neil Gaiman describes Pratchett's books as 'small miracles,' and this collection is no exception, offering wonder, mayhem, and delight to both new and loyal readers.
