When King Verence of Lancre is murdered by his cousin, his baby son is rescued by three witches. They are Granny Weatherwax, whose normal state of being is one of barely controlled rage, the extremely earthy Nanny Ogg, and the downtrodden Magrat Garlick.
This one's right up there with Good Omens & Men at Arms for me. If you like Shakespeare, especially his "Scottish Play", then you'll love this hilarious Phythonesque homage to the bard. In fact, anyone would have a blast with this whether they're a fan of Shakespeare or not. The witches have got to be Terry's best characters by far.
