You may not know this, but the world actually is flat. This is Discworld, Terry Pratchett’s Discworld to be precise. The Disc, as it is more commonly referred to, is in fact supported by four giant elephants (Berilia, Tubul, Great T’phon and Jerakeen) which stand on the back of the star turtle, the Great A’Tuin.

If you go back to the older myths and traditions, as the excellent Mr Pratchett has clearly done, you get a very different kind of tale. Traditionally speaking, faeries are self iterested, they do what pleases them. Some of them (the Seelie) are generally benevolent, some, (The unseelie) like to harm people for their entertainment. Somewhere in the hills of Lancre stands a stone circle, and to it are attracted a group of girls who think that being a witch is all ...
