'Just because you can't explain it, doesn't mean it's a miracle.'
Religion is a controversial business in the Discworld. Everyone has their own opinion, and indeed their own gods. Who come in all shapes and sizes. In such a competitive environment, there is a pressing need to make one's presence felt. And it's certainly not remotely helpful to be reduced to be appearing in the form of a tortoise, a manifestation far below god-like status in anyone's book. In such instances, you need an acolyte, and fast. Preferably one who won't ask too many questions...

      Celebrated voice talent Andy Serkis has a marvelous time narrating this 13th entry (of 41) in the late fantasy writer Terry Pratchett's vaunted DISCWORLD series. First published in 1992, it all starts when a once powerful god, Om, finds himself trapped in the body of a talking tortoise and seeks help from a novice at the local monastery. Satirical theological and philosophical discussions abound as Serkis finds voices for everyone from the tortoise to the evil "Quisitor" to a very New-Age-California-sounding professor. English film treasure Bill Nighy delivers Pratchett's pithy footnotes, while Peter Serafinowicz provides the voice of Death himself. Most of all, Serkis nicely captures Pratchett's true and highly entertaining style, silly and profound all at once. B.P. © AudioFile 2022, Portland, Maine
