Great story, good smattering of history, fabulous presentation, and the added bonus of an author's note from the late great Terry Pratchett.

Just fabulous to listen to

Please don’t skip over this book because you want to stay faithful to Discworld. I promise, you’ll be as gripped by these wonderful characters as you ever were by Vimes, Tiffany, Rincewind, or Death. This book is an example of Terry Pratchett at his finest. The references to Roundworld people and places make it that much more poignant and tangible.

I’ve fallen in love with Pratchett in another world

Different to the Discworld but still undeniably Pratchett. Perhaps for that reason - seeing Pratchett nail an altogether different world - I enjoyed it so thoroughly. I thoroughly recommend.

Although it is not a Discworld novel, I found the same wonderful word play and ironic moments that I have come to expect from the iconic Sir T. Pratchett. I especially enjoyed the various historic and historical characters.

My family and I are Terry Pratchett fans and Dodger is one of his best works.
I really enjoyed the narrator and his accents etc. Love the characters, the story line and the social comment behind all of Terry Pratchetts books.

Love it!
