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 Monstrous Regiment is narrated by Katherine Parkinson, star of The IT Crowd and Here We Go. 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.

'THAT'S THE TROUBLE ABOUT THE GOOD GUYS AND THE BAD GUYS! THEY'RE ALL GUYS!'

In the small yet aggressive country of Borogravia, there are strict rules citizens must follow. For a start, women belong in the kitchen - not in jobs, pubs, or indeed trousers. And certainly not on the front line.

Polly Perks has to become a boy in a hurry if she wants to find her missing brother in the army. Cutting off her hair and wearing the trousers is easy. Going to war however, is not.

Polly and her fellow raw recruits are suddenly in the thick of a losing battle. All they have on their side is the most artful sergeant in the army and a vampire with a lust for coffee.

It's time to make a stand.

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

Ce que les critiques en disent

"You ride along on his tide of outlandish invention, realising that you are in the presence of a true original." (The Times)

From the beginning you're drawn into a country that seems insane or almost backwards. Tough topics like gender equality, corruption in politics, and religion are artfully talked about using humor and action to make it easier to digest. Rich and diverse storytelling that will leave you wanting more

Incredibly deep, Funny, And not afraid of difficult topics.

The plot is good, the dialogue hilarious, but the narration is everything! Been through a lot of audiobooks in the past couple of years, most of them with excellent readers, but the narration for this one is one of a kind. Truly fantastic.

The story is great, narration is extraordinary

This book was so refreshing! Tackling thèmes way beyond its year of publication. Not all of it holds up twenty years later, but it extremely clever and thought-provoking.

Best Discworld Book

Wonderful book and Katherine Parkinson did an amazing job. One of the best adaptations from the new Penguin series. Would highly recommend.

Fantastic Adaptation

but terrible narrator. Ruined my complete enjoyment of STPs novel. If you want to hear excellent, excellent narration, listen to the Witches series read by Indira Varma. She is the best!!! Also, little to no humor in this novel. That was disappointing. I am used to humor in all the other Discworld books I have read.

Terrific story....
