SAYING IT WITH FROZEN ROSES AND ICEBERGS

Young witch Tiffany Aching leaps into a dance – and suddenly the spirit of winter is in love with her.

Now she’s dancing to his tune, and she can’t change the steps.

Unless she can work out how to deal with the Wintersmith, there will never be another springtime . . .

‘Oodles of dry wit, imagination and shrewdly observed characters’

From the Back Cover:

At 9, Tiffany Aching defeated the cruel Queen of Fairyland. At 11, she banished an ancient body-stealing evil. At 13, Tiffany faces a new challenge: a boy. And boys can be a bit of a problem when you're thirteen . . . .

But the Wintersmith isn't exactly a boy. He is Winter itself—snow, gales, icicles—all of it. When he has a crush on Tiffany, he may make her roses of ice, but his nature is blizzards and avalanches. And he wants Tiffany to stay in his gleaming, frozen world. Forever.

Tiffany will need all her cunning to make it to Spring. She'll also need her friends, from junior witches to the legendary Granny Weatherwax. They—Crivens! Tiffany will need the Wee Free Men, too! She'll have the help of the bravest, toughest, smelliest pixies ever to be banished from Fairyland—whether she wants it or not. It's going to be a cold, cold season, because if Tiffany doesn't survive until Spring—Spring won't come.
