 Witches Abroad
comment
The 12th Discworld novel and the second or third book in the "witches" theme (depending on if you count Equal Rites). The title is a pune, or play on words, on the Shakespearean phrase "witches abroad" (i.e., out on the prowl in archaic language) whereas here it's used in the modern sense — they're going to a foreign country.It seemed like an easy job... after all, how difficult can it be to make sure that a servant girl doesn't marry a prince?But for the witches Granny Weatherwax, Nanny Ogg and Magrat Garlick, travelling to the distant city of Genua, things are never that simple. Servant girls have to marry the prince. That's what life is all about. You don't fight a Happy Ending.At least, up until now...Preceded by Reaper Man, followed by Small Gods. Preceded in the Witches series by Wyrd Sisters, followed by Lords and Ladies.

Dangerous Interrogative
 Witches Abroad / int_10d7f712
comment
Dangerous Interrogative: During their nastiest argument, Magrat insults Granny Weatherwax, who then politely but firmly asks her to repeat herself. The narration notes that asking someone to repeat something both parties know full well the offended heard the first time around is "Defcon 3" in argument terms.

Magic Wand: Standard issue for a Fairy Godmother. Interestingly, you actually control it by twisting the rings in the handle to change the settings; Magrat only ever manages to transform things into pumpkins because she keeps trying to control it mentally.

Red Riding Hood Replica
 Witches Abroad / int_1dc151db
comment
Red Riding Hood Replica: The witches find a young girl in a red hood taking a basket of goodies to her grandmother. After spending some time with the Bratty Half-Pint, Magrat starts to understand why her mother lets her walk alone through a forest known to contain wolves. Due to the book's theme of "rural myth", Nanny Ogg says the same thing happened near Skund and they never even found the granny. It's also mentioned that when Nanny herself was younger, she also wore a red hood while taking baskets of goodies to her grandmother, who lived next door. The "wolf" in this case being "old Sumpkins the lodger".

Stealth Pun
 Witches Abroad / int_1e7c47ab
comment
Stealth Pun: There's a couple of puns where the first two witches give an outright pun or Shout-Out but Nanny Ogg delivers the stealth pun. When stuck in a The Wizard of Oz parody, the witches are calling out each other's behaviour. The three of them are deliberating on the idea of a transport system built on broomsticks. Their ideas for names are puns on well know real world airlines but Nanny Ogg gets cut off before she finishes hers: "Vir-". However, note she is looking from Granny to Magrat and being rather coquettish. Consider Magrat's role in The Hecate Sisters trio. Virgin. One that can be difficult to spot without reading it aloud, but "Genuan" could be considered a play on "genuine." "Samedi Nuit Mort": Samedi = Saturday; Nuit = Night; Mort = Dead. Think Terry got a chuckle from Saturday Night Live? In the scene with the vampire, while he's given his final blow by Greebo, he's first stunned by Magrat opening the shutters. Magrat's last name happens to be Garlick, a very slight variation on something known for being a weakness of vampires. Could be a coincidence, but then again, this is Discworld we're talking about. Bear Mountain is so named because it's bare, not because it has bears on it. If it were correctly spelled it would be the Discworld version of that other famous sabbat venue Bald Mountain.

Hot in Human Form
 Witches Abroad / int_229ffe84
comment
Hot in Human Form: Played straight with Greebo, but averted with the animals that Lilith transforms. May be because Lilith's magic forces animals to become something that's against their nature, while the witches' transformation works with his nature (and it's noted that, despite how he might appear to humans, Greebo is already very attractive by cat standards).

 Witches Abroad / int_22cf536c
comment
Chekhov's Gun: Early in the book Magrat explains a bit about the judo-like martial arts she's studying; namely that it's based around using your enemy's power against them. While the other witches don't seem impressed by it at the time, during the climax, Granny defeats Mrs Gogol, who is threatening her with a Voodoo Doll, by thrusting her hand into a blazing torch up to the elbow, causing the doll to burst into flames while her arm is unscathed. She even glances at Magrat before doing so as a subtle acknowledgement. Nanny's willow-reinforced hat with integrated pockets protects her from a falling farmhouse, and contains the first-aid supplies she uses to stitch up Granny's mirror-cuts at the end.

Mythology Gag: Greebo dons a ginger cat mask for the ball, remarking that he'd always wanted to be ginger. This may well be this trope, as the ROC edition of Wyrd Sisters had erroneously depicted Greebo as ginger, not gray.

Secret Test of Character: At the end of the book, Granny and Lilith become trapped (separately) in a limbo full of mirrors after the magical explosion that "kills" them. Death is there, and he tells Lilith that to get back to the land of the living, she needs to find her real self amongst the mirrors, and Lilith starts desperately looking. When Granny's turn comes and Death tells her the same challenge... Granny points out that she's standing right there. Guess who leaves the limbo.

Early-Installment Weirdness: The dwarfs the coven encounter are more upset that they'll lose out on a seam of gold and don't give a figgin about the miners trapped in there with it. In Thud!, leaving another dwarf to die in a cave-in is a taboo in dwarf society worthy of getting a curse set on the perpetrator.

Obliviously Evil
 Witches Abroad / int_51c70be6
comment
The real irony is that, based on what Granny says, Lilith was supposed to be the good one, and she was meant to be bad. But Lilith's grasp of good and evil were so warped that she ended up as the bad witch without even realising it, forcing Granny to be the good one to balance her out. This explains EVERYTHING about Esmerelda Weatherwax.

Conveniently Coherent Thoughts
 Witches Abroad / int_5318f34d
comment
Conveniently Coherent Thoughts: Averted. It's stated that small animals think clear, precise thoughts ('Eat. Run away. Mate. Kill.' etc.), but larger ones have multi-layered minds and human heads are so full of diverse thoughts and ideas that actually 'reading' them is nearly impossible. Therefore, most of Granny's telepathic scanning involves sensing the general shape of others' minds, although she is able to pick up on the pervading fear in Genua because everyone was thinking roughly the same thing at the same time.

Theory of Narrative Causality
 Witches Abroad / int_567beeb6
comment
Theory of Narrative Causality: Lilith tries to order people's lives according to fairy-tale logic, twisting events so that they unfold according to the time-honoured patterns of stories. She thinks she's making the world a better place and giving people their happy ending, but really everyone would have been happier if she'd left them alone.

Animal Motif: Granny Weatherwax compares Magrat to a wet hen. Later on in the book, she's given a comparison to a small furry creature (whose life, presumably, is destined to end in a damp crunch). This gets repeated later on, during the final confrontation with the snake-like Sisters, where it turns out in Magrat's case that small furry creature is actually a mongoose.

Conveniently Unverifiable Cover Story: Because there is no practical way to do background checks on outsiders in the pre-Clacks era of Discworld, Lily Weatherwax is able to turn herself into Lady Lilith de Tempiscire by moving far enough away from Lancre that she doesn't run into anyone who knew her old identity and assuming the trappings and mannerisms of a lady.

Bested at Bowling: Granny wins back all their money (and more) from some card shark riverboat gamblers via the astute application of 'headology' and what later turns out to be many weeks of very intense practise. She also uses a little magic - not so that she wins, but to prevent her opponents from cheating (smashing a mirror,note which may have also served the purpose of keeping Lilith from seeing her and interfering making an ace fall out of a man's sleeve, messing up another man's hidden mechanism for card-switching).

Dead-End Room: Soon after the book's climax, both Esme and Lilith are separately trapped in the space between mirrors, and Death politely informs them that they cannot escape until they "find the real one". Lilith gets trapped forever, frantically searching for the real Lilith amongst all her reflections. Esme has to ask if this is some sort of trick question, because it's so obvious the real her is standing right there.

Humanity Ensues: Greebo, and the mice which are transformed into footmen. Also Emberella's "evil stepsisters," which Lilith made from snakes, and an unfortunate wolf which was sort of turned into a human... Inverted by Granny, who has been known to make people who cross her think they're frogs. She considers this an important distinction - for one thing, it wears off, and crucially, it doesn't do any permanent harm (also, she thinks it's funny).

Twice-Told Tale
 Witches Abroad / int_796a7bfc
comment
Twice-Told Tale: Many of the jokes don't make sense if you don't know "Cinderella" due to the Whole-Plot Reference that Lily is using. Good thing everyone does, isn't it? Part of the book's theme is the idea that fairytale stories repeat themselves, wear a groove in the world and then subvert reality so that, for example, "it is now actually impossible for the third and youngest son of a king to set out on a quest that has claimed his two older brothers, and not succeed." Lily's power comes from manipulating the stories to her own ends. Even when, as in the case of the stories she's using for her main plot, she's actually got at least one of them backwards. Black Aliss, a famous Wicked Witch, was also responsible for the Discworld versions of several fairytales, including Hansel and Gretel and Sleeping Beauty. Some overlap with Fractured Fairy Tale, because she also turned people into gingerbread and had a house made of frogs.

Magic Poker Equation: Downplayed with Granny's attempt to win back the witches' traveling money (and Nanny Ogg's broomstick) from some card sharps. To begin with it's clear that she's playing skilfully however the cards fall; she bluffs well with bad hands and folds early when her opponent has a good one. But the trope is played straight with the final bet, when she beats the second-best possible hand in the game with the first-best.

The Hecate Sisters
 Witches Abroad / int_9c209a57
comment
The three of them are deliberating on the idea of a transport system built on broomsticks. Their ideas for names are puns on well know real world airlines but Nanny Ogg gets cut off before she finishes hers: "Vir-". However, note she is looking from Granny to Magrat and being rather coquettish. Consider Magrat's role in The Hecate Sisters trio. Virgin.

comment
What the Fu Are You Doing?: Magrat, as the kind of person who believes wisdom from foreign places is better, takes up martial arts, but she isn't very good at it. It doesn't help that she ordered her lessons from "Grandmaster Lobsang Dibbler" of Ankh-Morpork.

Continuity Nod: When the witches get locked up by the Duc and Lilith, Nanny remarks that she's an experienced prisoner, referring to the time she was thrown in a dungeon by the Duke and Duchess in Wyrd Sisters. This isn't the first time Death has received a compliment on the quality of his "mask". In The Light Fantastic he was at a (different) party when he is summoned by the wizards, and comments that it's going to go downhill at midnight, because:

Unusual Pets for Unusual People: Mrs Gogol the voodoo witch has a black cockerel called Legba, which she claims to be a dark and terrible spirit. He isn't... there is something strange about him. He's a great deal smarter than a cockerel should be, and is one of a very small selection of beings in the entire series to scare Greebo, who in the same book corners and toys with a bull and eats a vampire (in bat-form). note  The others are Feegles, Elves, and You, Granny's kitten - and Greebo will still attack Elves if cornered and/or pissed off As Granny somewhat cryptically remarks, "exactly what it is I may never decide."

Forced Transformation: Lilith has performed several transformations in the backstory, including a version of the classic Bewitched Amphibians. In the story itself, she turns the footmen, who we spent a while getting to know and sympathize with, into beetles. And steps on them. Later on, with a reluctant Nanny Ogg, the witches agree to do this with Greebo, her one-eyed cat. Greebo handles it fairly well, since he retains his catlike instincts and ferocity. He can also get all the milk he likes from the kitchen.

 Witches Abroad / int_e23fac54
comment
Invisible Writing: Parodied when the witches come upon a dwarf mine, identified by invisible runes. Magrat states she can't see them, which Nanny Ogg points out is how you know you got your money's worth with invisible runes.

Light Is Not Good: Lily dresses all in white and thinks of herself as a creator of happy endings. Granny dressed up in white to get into the ball, and her exact level of goodness fluctuates.

O.O.C. Is Serious Business: At the final confrontation, Granny Weatherwax, a figure of general terror to all who know her, tries with surprising softness to reach out to her sister one last time, with the admittance it's not coming easy to her. Lilith rejects it.

The Tell
 Witches Abroad / int_ea0a3d
comment
The Tell: Granny absent-mindedly twiddling her little finger in her ear moments before she utterly destroys somebody. First shows up, appropriately enough, in a card game (with Nanny explaining its significance to Magrat), then reappears a few times later, most dramatically during her showdown with Mrs Gogol.

Lilith has performed several transformations in the backstory, including a version of the classic Bewitched Amphibians. In the story itself, she turns the footmen, who we spent a while getting to know and sympathize with, into beetles. And steps on them.

Mercy Kill: The Big Bad Wolf willingly goes to the woodcutter's axe because Lily forced it to think human thoughts with a wolf's mind, a terrible thing to do to a simple predator. (This revelation to the witches is also something of a Moral Event Horizon for Lilith.)

Youngest Child Wins
 Witches Abroad / int_f6e99f40
comment
Part of the book's theme is the idea that fairytale stories repeat themselves, wear a groove in the world and then subvert reality so that, for example, "it is now actually impossible for the third and youngest son of a king to set out on a quest that has claimed his two older brothers, and not succeed." Lily's power comes from manipulating the stories to her own ends. Even when, as in the case of the stories she's using for her main plot, she's actually got at least one of them backwards.

Evil Is Hammy
 Witches Abroad / int_fdf22cfd
comment
Evil Is Hammy: Subverted, to Granny's immense rage. Lily spent her whole life convinced that she was the good sister who was putting the needs of others over her own, and, so convinced of her own martyrdom, thus made herself a very understated and sinister foe. To Granny, who knew for a fact who was the good sister and who was the bad, this is almost a greater sin than any of Lily's actual wrongdoing, because Granny would have at least enjoyed it, making whole banquets of her surroundings and being bad enough to even top the legendary Black Aliss, who (when in Lily's role) could keep multiple stories going at once in the same place.
