tealinTruckers, first book of the Bromeliad Trilogy, has been airing on Big Toe Books. It's not a Discworld book but is full of Pratchetty goodness and smarts. It's abridged a bit but maintains most of the important stuff and accurately represents the tone and themes of the books.
Part 1 starts at 40:20 - don't click away at the interruption, there's another part after.
Part 2 starts at 38:09
Part 3 starts at 38:24
Part 4 starts at 38:40
Part 5 starts at 38:19 - THE END*
I'd forgotten how much I like this series. Let's hope Dreamworks continues to forget it has the movie rights to it... This one's pretty well-read, considering it's on a kids' show. And the sound effects aren't too grating. Points to Big Toe.
Mort has somehow reached episode 4 (I told you not to trust me to keep updating the links) but Small Gods is at Episode 2.
AND Mr P is on an archived edition of Book Club, first aired in 2004. This only works till Friday so listen now!
On top of that, we've got cover art for Nation and some other upcoming releases on Discworld News.
*For a given value of 'end' ... there are two other books in the series, after all, but they don't appear to have gotten the Big Toe treatment. Pity. If you want to look them up at the library they are called Diggers and Wings. Worth your time.
