Description
Brought to you by Penguin.
The audiobook of Feet of Clay is narrated by impressionist and actor Jon Culshaw, best known for BBC Radio 4’s Dead Ringers, and for the Doctor Who audiobooks and dramas. 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 WASN'T BY ELIMINATING THE IMPOSSIBLE THAT YOU GOT AT THE TRUTH, HOWEVER IMPROBABLE; IT WAS BY THE MUCH HARDER PROCESS OF ELIMINATING THE POSSIBILITIES.'
Commander Sam Vimes of the City Watch is used to trouble. There's always trouble in Ankh-Morpork.
But this is new: people are being brutally murdered and there's no evidence of anything alive having been at the crime scene. At the same time, the most powerful man in the city has been poisoned and is clinging on to life by a thread.
It's a conundrum of a case. With the help of Captain Carrot, the only watchman who knows the law inside-out; Corporal Cheery Littlebottom, an unconventional dwarf with an eye for forensics; and Constable Angua, a werewolf with an excellent sense of smell, Vimes tries to solve the mystery.
But time is of the essence, for something extremely dangerous is loose in the city, its red eyes glowing in the night…
Feet of Clay is the third book in the City Watch 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.

I Miss Stephen Briggs
The narrator is serviceable, but Stephen Briggs really added to the story in a way that just isn’t present here. With Briggs, you could tell who was speaking just from his performance, adding little things like making Capt Carrot have the same accent as the dwarves since he was raised by them. Also, the auditory indications of the footnotes is just assinine

Great Story, Lacking Performance
I love this book and there is little someone could do to make me dislike it. I had high hopes for the new recordings of the Discworld series, hoping they would add depth and continuity to the whole. While I cannot say that this is a bad audiobook, I can and will say that it didn’t quite live up to expectations. While the narrator is an excellent voice actor, I found his reading incredibly slow. Every couple of words he pauses as if to add emphasis. The only way I could get through it was to put it at a higher speed.
Otherwise, it is a decent audiobook and there isn’t much else I can really quibble over that I can’t just attribute to personal taste.
