"Witches are not by their nature gregarious, and they certainly don't have leaders. Granny Weatherwax was the most highly-regarded of the leaders they didn't have. But even she found that meddling in royal politics was a lot more difficult than certain playwrights would have you believe ... "
An early Discworld novel (only #6 in a series that has just reached the 40 mark), this is also only the second appearance of Granny Weatherwax (after Equal Rites) and, I believe, the first of Nanny Ogg or Magrat Garlick.
The plot, of course, is loosely based around that of MacBeth (or 'The Scottish Play', for those of a superstitious nature), with plenty of other Shakespearean references thrown in for good measure.
Well worth a read, but be prepared to be getting funny looks if you burst out laughing while reading it in public!
