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 listened to 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

enjoyable listen
I've got all the old audio books but these are really different and worth the listen if you are wondering if it's worthwhile

IMO, it was a massive disservice to a fantastic novel
This is one of my favourite stories, so I was looking forward to the new adaptation.
I was saddened by the production.
For some reason, it’s been decided that it’s deserving of the most dramatic reading of all time. For the first time, I had to speed things up, just to get it away from the pace of going to a funeral.
It’s true that this story has some of the most graphic imagery in it, even though it is a very loose detailing, but the entire thing doesn’t deserve the pace set.
And maybe I’ve listened to Stephen Briggs’ reading too much, but the voices weren’t right.
Best thing? The volume was level.

Great new addition to Sir Terry Pratchett’s Audible collection
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!!

A real treat!
Night watch is my favourite Discworld book, and this is a fantastic reading of it. Loved it so much, the voice acting was brilliant, particularly Vimes. I’ve been listening to all the Watch audiobooks in order and was so looking forward to hearing this one - it was a real treat! Will definitely re-listen!

Just not the same
Great production. But the narrator just didn’t nail all the voices. A hard task because the previous narrators are so well loved but honestly you just can’t beat the original recordings.
