'You can't go around building a better world for people. Only people can build a better world for people. Otherwise, it's just a cage.'

There's power in stories. The Fairy Godmother is good. The servant girl marries the Prince. Everyone lives happily ever after... don't they?

The witches Granny Weatherwax, Nanny Ogg and Magrat Garlick are travelling to far-distant Genua to stop a wedding and save a kingdom. But how do you fight a happy-ever-after, especially when it comes with glass slippers and a power-hungry Fairy Godmother who has made Destiny an offer it can't refuse?

It's hard to resist a good story, even when the fate of the kingdom depends on it...

'No one mixes the fantastical and mundane to better comic effect' Daily Mail

'One of our greatest fantasists, and beyond a doubt the funniest' George R.R. Martin

Witches Abroad is the third book in the Witches series, but you can listen to the Discworld novels in any order.

The first book in the Discworld series - The Colour of Magic - was published in 1983. Some elements of the Discworld universe may reflect this.

Reseñas de la Crítica

'A true orginal among contemporary writers'

'His jokes are the best thing since Wodehouse. His comic footnotes are still glorious'

'Pratchett's writing is a constant delight. No-one mixes the fantastical and mundane to better comic effect or offers sharper insights into the absurdities of modern endeavour'

Indira Varma gives perfect voice to the Discworld

I have loved all the Discworld books forever. Now I have found a new love...Varma's narration.

Very nice indeed

Sir Terry is always a treat, and this new rendition is amazingly good. Can't wait for the rest

Best choice for performer ever!

Indra Varma brings depth and emotion to a book that has always carried the soul of creativity in its very DNA. Terry Pratchett delights and induces laughter as he thumbs his nose at classic fairy tale tropes and pays tribute to humanity the way only he can. Learn to gently gnaw on the hands that try to keep you in line by listening to this incredible book and you will never be the same again!

I miss Death SPEAKING IN ALL CAPS.

Andy Serkis does a good job, but I miss Nigel Planer's version of Death. You could tell he was speaking with the Caps lock on, just the way Death does in the book. Serkis' version of death takes some of the fun out of Death's personality.

The story itself is so much fun

The narration makes this story come alive. Everything is just perfection. I will listen to this books forever.
