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.

'Beating people up in little rooms . . . he knew where that led. And if you did it for a good reason, you'd do it for a bad one. You couldn't say 'we;re the good guys' and do bad-guy things.'

Koom Valley, the ancient battle where the trolls ambushed the dwarfs, or the dwarfs ambushed the trolls, was a long time ago.

But if he doesn't solve the murder of just one dwarf, Commander Sam Vimes of Ankh-Morpork City Watch is going to see it fought again, right outside his office.

With his beloved Watch crumbling around him and war-drums sounding, he must unravel every clue, outwit every assassin and brave any darkness to find the solution. And darkness is following him.

Oh . . . and at six o'clock every day, without fail, with no excuses, he must go home to read 'Where's My Cow?', with all the right farmyard noises, to his little boy.

There are some things you have to do.

The Discworld novels can be listened to in any order but Thud! is the seventh book in the City Watch series.

Somehow not as funny as many of his stories and fewer twists. But a lot of clever ideas as always.

Fantastic performance. Good story but not his best

Another classic!

A fantastic interpretation of the characters in one of Pratchett’s best Vimes’ stories. Culshaw is excellent. Well worth listening to, even if you’ve read or listened to the story before.

Brilliant reading

Great Story

For me, Jon Culshaw will always be the voice of the Watch. His depictions are spot on, allowing you to visualise the characters... especially Nobby Nobbs. And is it just me, when I hear Sam Vimes I picture Sean Bean...???

Another excellent tale.

Great story. Beautifully put together - It’s a Terry Pratchett thing…

Heartedly recommended, but I do feel that the Watch books be read - or listened to - in order.

Nobby’s voice is perfection!

Culshaw is a great narrator— I really enjoyed his Vimes, Angua, and Carrot particularly. The adventure and pacing are done very well here, and I kept stealing more time for listening!

I do find the Nighy footnotes quite tiresome, but there aren’t too many in this novel.

One of the best Discworld!
