  • A message, carried by pointless albatross, arrives for Lord Vetinari from the Agatean Empire. The message explains that the Silver Horde (a group of aged barbarians introduced in Interesting Times, wherein they conquered the Empire, and led by Cohen the Barbarian, now the Emperor) have set out on a quest. The first hero of the Discworld, "Fingers" Mazda, stole fire from the gods and gave it to mankind (analogous to Prometheus), and was chained to a rock to be torn open daily by a giant eagle as punishment. As the last heroes remaining on the Disc, the Silver Horde seek to return fire to the gods with interest, in the form of a large sled packed with explosive Agatean Thunder Clay. They plan to blow up the gods at their mountain home, Cori Celesti. With them is a whiny, terrified bard, whom they have kidnapped so that he can write the saga of their quest. Along the way, they are joined by Evil Harry Dread (the last Dark Lord) and Vena the Raven-haired (an elderly heroine who has now gone grey).

    I have tried to improve the sound but cutting out the noise in the background of the recording so hopefully that will help it sound a little better 😊. These are old recordings so there isn’t much I can do about the sound. But I did try. Hope you enjoy.

      I completely agree with your description. I rely on his works to contemplate the world, but late at night when I can't sleep I listen to him because I feel like a child again. I can see the world he created and all of the people. If I am suffering with insomnia I imagine I am being read to. I drift off on "clouds" of Pratchett. Like tonight.

    Thank you. For some odd reason, every single Discworld audiobook is available on all audiobook websites except this one. Not even audible has it, and they've released new recordings of the other books.

      Its not a picture book its a graphic novel. Picture books are novels or stories with occasional pictures. Baby books have more pictures. Really graphic novels are just posh comic books. 😂

    Who is the narrator of this version?
    Audible does have a German language version of this book. I listened to the 5min. sample, could only understand a hand full of words, here & there (not being a person that can read, write, or speak German), but I'm sure it's fine.

    Thanks so much for this! It was the only one of the 41 book set I did not have on audio! I'm working my way through the second time and was so pleased to be able to listen to this enjoyable piece of Sir Prachetts work!
