Finally got through this one. Don't know why the beginning was so hard to get through. The end went more smoothly once I got into the story

Granny Weatherwax, Nanny Ogg, and Maigrat have fairy godmother-dom thrust upon them.
This one was one of the best ones in the series so far. Nice, self-contained story. Interesting characters with lots of funny plays on stereotypes, combined with references to the real world.
JASMINE BASHARA never signed up to be a hero. She just wanted to get rich.
…A real page turner. Admittedly not as good as The Martian or Project Hail Mary, but still a very engaging story. I don't know why, but Weir's style of writing really clicks with me. I didn't need to re-read sentences several times like I sometimes have to do with other authors that want to write things in a clever way. I prefer the language to be clear and the story intricate; not the other way around.

Nice short story. Only problem is that with a background in modern physics, it was clear what the big reveal was going to be. At the time of writing, this was new physics.
The story itself is very good, but for some reason the writing didn't really click with me. There were sentences and sections that I had to re-read several times to understand what was going on. I think it's because the author likes doing big plot twists in an off-the-cuff manner.
