À propos de cet audio
Brought to you by Penguin.
Over 1 million Discworld audiobooks sold – discover the extraordinary universe of Terry Pratchett’s Discworld like never before
The audiobook of Equal Rites is narrated by Indira Varma (Game of Thrones; Luther; This Way Up). BAFTA and Golden Globe award-winning actor Bill Nighy (Love Actually; Pirates of the Caribbean; Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows) reads the footnotes, and Peter Serafinowicz (Star Wars: Episode I - The Phantom Menace; Shaun of the Dead) stars as the voice of Death. Featuring a new theme tune composed by James Hannigan.
'They say that a little knowledge is a dangerous thing, but it is not one half so bad as a lot of ignorance.'
Everybody knows there's no such thing as a female wizard. So when the wizard Drum Billet accidentally passes on his staff of power to an eighth daughter of an eighth son, a girl called Eskarina (Esk, for short), the misogynistic world of wizardry wants nothing to do with her.
Thankfully Granny Weatherwax, the Discworld's most famous witch, has plenty of experience ignoring the status quo. With Granny's help, Esk sneaks her way into the magical Unseen University and befriends apprentice wizard Simon.
But power is unpredictable, and these bright young students soon find themselves in a whole new dimension of trouble. Let the battle of the sexes begin...
'If you've never read a Discworld novel, what's the matter with you?' Guardian
'Pratchett uses his other world to hold up a distorting mirror to our own' The Times
Equal Rites is the first 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.

Absolutely wonderful
I loved the story- witty and made me fall in love with the idea of witches and magic all over again. the narration was fantastic and clear which was perfect for roadtrip driving.

delightful!
I loved the performance! It really brought the story to life. Indra's many voices where delightful and her tone and cadence really suited the book. I'm looking forward to hearing the other books from this series!

Excellent reading of an excellent story.
this adiobook was very easy to listen to and follow, even while doing other things. Indira Varma adjusted her voice enough to tell each character apart without sounding like someone trying to do "voices". It was very pleasant and very well done. Bill Nighy and Peter Serafinowicz are great as usual.
I always liked this story. Esk is a bit of a proto-TiffanyAching, and frankly I prefer Esk and always wished she'd pop up again.*
The witches' storyline isn't my favourite or least liked, but whenever I re-read/listen to one of their stories, I always enjoy it and am surprised I had forgotten just how good they are.
*Sooner than she did, anyways, and in a way that wouldn't make me cry ugly tears.
