Penguin audiobook dates are based on announced or actual UK release dates; note that these have changed a few times, and that other regions may see them some time later, so they might not be entirely accurate.

Discworld audiobooks

There have been several series of Discworld audiobooks in English:

  • The original Corgi Audio versions were abridged recordings read by Tony Robinson. They have also published abridged audiobooks of most of Pratchett's other books, also read by Robinson. Pratchett famously hated his work being abridged, leading Robinson to believe he didn't like the performer.
  • Isis Publishing produced the first unabridged Discworld audiobooks. It seems they were initially intended to have different narrators for each sub-series, but in the end there were just three: Nigel Planer narrated all of them until 2000, except for the first couple of Witches books (Equal Rites and Wyrd Sisters), which were read by Celia Imrie. Stephen Briggs took over in 2000, beginning with The Fifth Elephant.
  • Fantastic Audio produced just two Discworld audiobooks for the US, Thief of Time and Night Watch. They're notable for having multiple narrators - six for Thief of Time! - including a "guest appearance" by Harlan Ellison.
  • Some US audiobooks are produced by Harper Audio, most read by Stephen Briggs; some re-use the recordings of the Isis books. (We're still adding these.)
  • Penguin Audio announced their new series of unabridged audiobooks as part of the "50 Years of Terry" celebrations in 2021. As well as featuring a different narrator for each sub-series, they feature new theme music and separate performers for the footnotes (Bill Nighy) and Death (Peter Serafinowicz) who are consistent across all of the titles, and Steven Cree voicing the Nac Mac Feegle in all six books where they appear. Hogfather was released early in time for Christmas 2021, with each sub-series to get a separate release over the next two years. The standalone books like Pyramids, Small Gods and Monstrous Regiment are each read by a different narrator.

Dates for older audiobooks are mostly sourced from colinsmythe.co.uk, which is missing exact days or even months for some releases. Release dates given on Audible seem to be release on their digital platform, not the original release on cassette and/or CD. Penguin audiobook dates are based on announced or actual UK release dates; note that these have changed a few times, and that other regions may see them some time later, so they might not be entirely accurate.

  3. One of only two Discworld audiobook produced by Fantastic Audio for the US market, and now distributed by Phoenix Books. It's unusual in that its multiple narrators take turns reading the book, rather than being allocated specific roles. The full cast includes Christopher Cazenove, Gabrielle de Cuir, Karesa McElheny, John Robinstein and Stefan Rudnicki, with a guest appearance by Harlan Ellison, but some sources list only Ellison and Rudnicki (who are the only cast for the other one, Night Watch).
  4. Bakare also plays Darktan in The Amazing Maurice.
  5. 5.0 5.1 5.2 Richard Coyle previously portrayed Moist von Lipwig in Going Postal.
  6. Cast includes David Jason, Jon Culshaw, Matthew Horne, Josie Lawrence, Jame Winstone and Stephen Briggs.
  7. 7.0 7.1 7.2 7.3 Fenton-Stevens reads the science nonfiction chapters, while Briggs reads the Discworld fiction chapters.
  8. Michael Fenton Stevens also appears reading the “Notices” from the Ankh-Morpork Railway Service which appear in the book.
  9. Published under the Puffin Audiobook imprint.
  10. Rebecca Front is the Narrator, while all characters are played by actors in a frankly amazing cast. This includes Michael Sheen and David Tennant as Aziraphale and Crowley, reprising their roles from the television series; Katherine Kingsley as Anathema Device, Arthur Darvill as Newton Pulsifer, Peter Forbes as Shadwell, Gabrielle Glaister as Madame Tracy and Agnes Nutter, Louis Davison as Adam, Pixie Davies as Pepper, Chris Nelson as Wensleydale, and Ferdinand Frisby Williams as Brian, with other characters played by an ensemble cast of Adjoa Andoh, Allan Corduner, Kobna Holdbrook-Smith, Josh Hopkins, Lorelei King, Matt Reeves and Lemn Sissay.
  11. Briggs reads the Discworld stories, Fenton Stevens the rest.
