Hey folks, I am curious how the community feels about the Penguin re-production of the Discworld audio books. I’d imagine people become attached to whatever they listen to first. I read Guards, Guards on my own, Men At Arms with Nigel Planer, and now am trying the new release of Feet of Clay.

Parkinson can't do accents or voices. She should have just read the book in her normal voice.

She should have read the book before recording it. It really felt like someone just handed her the first Discworld book she'd ever seen, and shoved her into the recording booth.
