The author is humorous and clever on several levels. *** I have read every Pratchett book (up to Fifth Elephant) at least 3 times. Some have awful affectations for accents. They are not appropriate for reading satirical fantasy. The sound production is extremely competent. Summary: All in all, buy the book, not the audible. I hope that Audible will acquire the ISIS version and continue to provide the ISIS versions of this series. However, since I have learned that ISIS has produced this book with Stephen Briggs reading, I don't think I can recommend this version. If you like the series, you will enjoy this one also. The story is another wonderful Discworld title. Several of the characters are well done by this group, which makes it even more disturbing when the voice for that character changes. I cannot come up with any reason why this was done except for the possibility that the person reading was the one who showed up to work that day. Having multiple people read a book is a fine idea, but why does this group have a tendency to change parts at will? You get used to hearing one voice read a character and then you get a different person reading the character with completely different style. Out of all the Discworld books offered by this site, this is the first one to disappoint me. 5 Stars for the story, 1 star for the reading
