Summary

Brought to you by Penguin.

Over 1 million Discworld audiobooks sold – discover the extraordinary universe of Terry Pratchett’s Discworld like never before.

'Sorry?' said Carrot. If it's just a thing, how can it commit murder? A sword is a thing' - he drew his own sword; it made an almost silken sound - 'and of course you can't blame a sword if someone thrust it at you, sir.'

For Commander Vimes, Head of Ankh-Morpork City Watch, life consists of troubling times, linked together by...well, more troubling times.

Right now, it's the latter. There's a werewolf with pre-lunar tension in the city, and a dwarf with attitude and a golem who's begun to think for itself, but that's just ordinary trouble. The real problem is more puzzling - people are being murdered, but there's no trace of anything alive having been at the crime scene.

So Vimes not only has to find out whodunit, but howdunit too. He's not even sure what they dun. But soon as he knows what the questions are, he's going to want some answers.

The Discworld novels can be read in any order but Feet of Clay is the third book in the City Watch series.

Critic reviews

'The work of a prolific humorist at his best'
'Like most true originals, Pratchett defies categorisation...Deliciously and amiably dotty...Driven by Swiftian logic and equally intellectually inventive'
'Fantastical, inventive and finally serious...It's enjoyable as crime fiction, but the real attraction is the laughter waiting to be uncovered on each page'

You really can't beat Terry Pratchett's stories and Jon Culshaw adds great voices (mostly at least, this isn't how Rosie Palm sounds on my head) to make this another great audio adaptation.

Top of Pratchett form for humour this one, topped by Nobby's short lived role as nobleman and the religious quest of a fireproof golem. Classic!

Great reading of a favorite.

Feet of Clay is one of my favourite Pratchett books although I haven't read it for a while. So when it popped up on Audible's Deal of the Day I grabbed it. I then listened to it all the way through the very same day! I'd forgotten how funny the book is and this was simply elevated by Jon Culshaw's reading of it - I was laughing out loud at several points!

It's immediately become one of my favourite audiobooks.

Absolutely brilliant!

The characters are brilliantly interpreted by Culshaw and Serafiniwicz, with Vimes and his Ankh-Morpork Watch’s rag tag assortment of officers expertly developed by two very talented story tellers.
Bill Nighy adding his monosyllabic tones to the footnotes creates hilarious interludes in a most entertaining listen.
One of the funniest and entertaining audiobooks I’ve listened to recently.

A Great Story Brought to Life

I love the levels of humour, Terry pratchett really was a funny man and his ability to make people laugh is sorely missed
