About this listen

Brought to you by Penguin.

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

'Don't put your trust in revolutions. They always come round again. That's why they're called revolutions. People die, and nothing changes.'

For a policeman, there can be few things worse than a serial killer loose in your city. Except, perhaps, a serial killer who targets coppers, and a city on the brink of bloody revolution.

For Commander Sam Vimes, it all feels horribly familiar. Caught on the roof of a very magical building during a storm, he's found himself back in his own rough, tough past without even the clothes he was standing up in when the lightning struck. Living in the past is hard, especially when your time travel companion is a serial killer who knows where you live. But he must survive, because he has a job to do: track down the murderer and change the outcome of the rebellion.

The problem is: if he wins, he's got no wife, no child, no future...

The Discworld novels can be read in any order but Night Watch is the sixth book in the City Watch series.

'The best Discworld book in the whole world ever. Until next time.' SFX

I was hesitant to listen to this as all the Night Watch books I have listened to we're ready by Nigel Planer. While Planer's narration was much sillier and more comedic, I don't know that it would have made this book better. It was a few chapters before I really got into it, but this narrator's voice does work very well with this story. I'm glad I gave it a chance and am now going to listen to the next book in the series.

Worth a chance!

Hilarious but provocative and stimulating making one think about deeper issues, motivations and ethics. The narration was off scale – wish I could give it a 10!

One of the best in the Discworld series

Jon Culshaw’s impressionist and acting skills bring Night Watch to life. It was always a deep read that needed time to allow all the subtleties of STP’s writing prowess to be fully absorbed. This Audible edition is perfect. Great listen!!

Great new addition to Sir Terry Pratchett’s Audible collection
