About this episode

The episode discusses 'A Hat Full Of Sky' and explores themes of witches and interpersonal dynamics.

HELLOOOOOO, discettes and discerati! Our latest episode of DISC COVERERS is all about A HAT FULL OF SKY, the second novel in the Tiffany Aching YA series and the deepest look we've gotten yet into the interpersonal lives and careers of witches.
