Granny Weatherwax, Nanny Ogg, and Magrat Garlick have to travel all the way to Genua to stop a girl from marrying a prince. Sounds easy enough, but this is the discworld, a place that runs on narrative causality. Here the stories take shape over real life. Here a big bad wolf is trying to eat Little Red Riding hood, and the yellow brick road is leading all the way to a fairy-tale city. Here it's almost impossible to a girl NOT to marry the prince. It's up to Granny, Nanny and Magrat to stop the stories and make sure that there will be an end to the happy endings.
