Over 1 million Discworld audiobooks sold – discover the extraordinary universe of Terry Pratchett’s Discworld like never before

The audiobook of The Colour of Magic is read by Colin Morgan (Merlin; Testament of Youth; Belfast). 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.

'It was octarine, the colour of magic. It was alive and glowing and vibrant and it was the undisputed pigment of the imagination . . .'

Somewhere between thought and reality exists the Discworld, a magical world not totally unlike our own. Except for the fact that it travels through space on the shoulders of four giant elephants who in turn stand on the shell of an astronomically huge star turtle, of course.

Rincewind is the world's worst wizard who has just been handed a very important job: to look after the world's first tourist, upon whose survival rests the peace and prosperity of the land. Unfortunately, their journey across the Disc includes facing robbers, monsters, mercenaries, and Death himself.

And the whole thing's just a game of the gods that might send them over the edge . . .

You can listen to the Discworld novels in any order, but The Colour of Magic is the first book in the Wizards series.

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

Ce que les critiques en disent

One of the best and funniest English authors alive
Like Jonathan Swift, Pratchett uses his other world to hold up a distorting mirror to our own, and like Swift he is a satirist of enormous talent...incredibly funny...compulsively readable.
He would be amusing in any form and his spectacular inventiveness makes the Discworld series one of the perennial joys of modern fiction.

Great performance by Colin Morgan. Different voices for each character which made it wavy to tell who was speaking. Got Rincewind’s petulant defiance down!

Sir Terry would be proud

I absolutely adored listening to this! The voices that the narration uses for each character are phenomenal! A wonderful ride!!

Absolutely amazing!

Loved the book but the ending left me a bit confused!
What happened to Twoflower? And did not understand what happened to Rincewood? It kind of left you hanging. I suppose the next book will explain it

great book!

I'm aware of the general opinion of the first few books being subpar to the rest, but I genuinely like them. They definitely rate in the top half of my personal Discworld ranking. Yes, it feels like several short stories linked together, and yes, most of my favourite recurring characters haven't arrived yet (apart from Rincewind who I love); but this ends up being a really great primer for all of the different directions the series takes you. The trademark humor and insight that sometimes sneaks up on you is already there. It's a great book on its own, and you know (from experience or reputation) that it keeps getting better.
Even if you're not into "fantasy" novels I recommend giving it a shot. It's not your traditional fantasy. The fantasy setting allows for more interesting ways to tell some very grounded stories with very real-world applications.
It's less of a window into another world as it is a stained glass reflection of our own.
I only take 1 star away from performance for the voice of Rincewind. So many depictions put on a goofy weasely voice or make him sound like an old man, when he's really only in his early 30's at the beginning of the series. He's described as bringing to mind the words rat-like when you look at him, but that doesn't mean he sounds like one. He's sarcastic and apathetic (at first), if anything he should have the voice of any random Gen Xer you might run into. If anyone on the disc has a "normal", unexagerated/uncartoonish voice - it's Rincewind.

A fun start to an excellent series

It’s a great book and I would recommend it to anyone interested in Terry Pratchet. The magic was colourful.

Great book.
