Sobre este artículo
New York: HarperPrism, 1997. NF/NF. American First Edition. Stated First HarperPrism printing with full number line ending in 1. The unread book is tight and square with solid hinges and binding, good tips, and clean unmarred boards. Spine tail pushed. The textblock is clean with no writing, bookplate, or markings and not BCE, ex-library, or remaindered. Light age-toning to pages. The dust jacket is unclipped ($22.00) and with faint creases to upper back panel. Protected in a new Brodart Mylar cover. 278 pages. 6¼ x 9¾" tall. Eighteenth book in the Discworld series and the fifth witches story.
The Ghost in the bone-white mask who haunts the Ankh-Morpork Opera House was always considered a benign presence -- some would even say lucky -- until he started killing people. The sudden rash of bizarre backstage deaths now threatens to mar the operatic debut of country girl Perdita X. (nee Agnes) Nitt, she of the ample body and ampler voice.
Perdita's expected to hide in the chorus and sing arias out loud while a more petitely presentable soprano mouths the notes. But at least it's an escape from scheming Nanny Ogg and old Granny Weatherwax back home, who want her to join their witchy ranks.
Once Granny sets her mind on something, however, it's difficult -- and often hazardous -- to dissuade her. And no opera-prowling phantom fiend is going to keep a pair of determined hags down on the farm after they've seen Ankh-Morpork.
