About this listen

Brought to you by Penguin.

'The people next door oppress me all night long. I tell them, I work all day, a man's got to have some time to learn to play the tuba. That's oppression, that is. If I'm not under the heel of the oppressor I don't know who is.'

An aura of mean-minded resentfulness is thick in the streets of Ankh-Morpork. Insurrection is in the air. The Haves and Have-Nots are about to fall out all over again. The Have-Nots ant some of their own magic. But magic in the hands of amateurs is a dangerous thing.

The City Watch is the last line of defence against such unnatural goings-on. But when even the Watch have trouble telling Right from Wrong, you know that Law and Order ain't what it used to be. But that's all about to change...

©1995 Terry and Lyn Pratchett (P)1995 Corgi Audio Fantasy Fiction City

"Pratchett has a masterful ear for dialogue, a keen eye for the ridiculous, and a real feel for language." (Time Out)

Love it. I read the physical book many times over the years, so there were a couple of bits missing, but such is the way when books are converted to audio or video. Tony Robinson is always my goto narrator for discworld, highly recommended as a great start to discworld.

Classic

I do wish Tony Robinson had read the full version because I love listening to him read Terry Pratchett. Even though this is abridged it was excellent and really made me laugh out loud.

Proper LOL at times (abridged)
