The Wee Free Men

The Wee Free Men was a fantastic book about a young girl named Tiffany Aching who goes on a search for her brother who was taken by an evil spirit. She isn't alone though; she has the aid of the Nac Mac Feegle, otherwise known as the Wee Free Men. The six inch tall blue skinned, red haired warriors are always ready to fight and have a great sense of humor. They take Tiffany on an adventure through the magical realm and help her discover her real powers, which she got from her grandmother who was the best sheperdess, and witch of her time. For the first time in her life Tiffany must pull together all the things from her past and use them to save her brother, using her wits, skill, and physical endurance. This was a great story that I really enjoyed reading. It had the perfect balance of magic and adventure and at the same time managed to pull in a little comedy. The characters where relatable and the plot was great.
