Publisher’s black cloth, spine lettered in silver; original unclipped dust jacket present.

Book clean and sharp with tight binding, vivid red endpapers, and no ownership markings noted beyond the author’s signature. Near Fine in Near Fine dust jacket.

A signed first edition of the twenty-third Discworld novel and the sixth centered on the Witches sequence, featuring Granny Weatherwax, Nanny Ogg, and Magrat Garlick confronting a decidedly modern family of vampires. One of the stronger late-period Discworld firsts to place signed, particularly in this condition, as Pratchett’s signed trade firsts continue to draw a broad and active collector base across fantasy, modern firsts, and author-focused collections.
