The Colour of Magic, the first novel in Terry Pratchett's wildly imaginative Discworld series, takes the listener on a remarkable journey. The magical planet of Discworld is supported by four massive elephants who stand on the back of the Great A'Tuin, a giant turtle swimming slowly through the mysterious interstellar gulf. An eccentric expedition sets out to explore the planet, encountering dragons who only exist if you believe in them, and, of course, 'The Edge' of the planet.

Somewhere on the frontier between thought and reality exists the Discworld, a parallel time and place which might sound and smell very much like our own, but which looks completely different. Collected together for the first time are seven full-cast BBC Radio dramatisations of Terry Pratchett’s novels, with star-studded casts including Martin Jarvis, Sheila Hancock, Anton Lesser, Philip Jackson, Alex Jennings and Mark Heap.

Der große monotheistische Gott Om hat ein Problem: Ihm sind die Gläubigen abhandengekommen. Und da im Götterhimmel weniger Gläubige auch weniger Macht bedeuten, findet sich der einst in Stiergestalt auftretende Gott plötzlich im Körper einer leicht lädierten einäugigen Schildkröte wieder. Zum Glück führt ihn das Schicksal zum Tempelgärtner Brutha, der zwar nicht der Hellste ist, aber immerhin Oms letzter wahrer Anhänger. Gemeinsam machen sich die beiden auf, Om wieder zu alter Macht zu verhelfen.

Somewhere on the frontier between thought and reality exists the Discworld, a parallel time and place that might sound and smell very much like our own, but that looks completely different. It plays by different rules. Certainly it refuses to succumb to the quaint notion that universes are ruled by pure logic and the harmony of numbers. But just because the Disc is different doesn't mean that some things don't stay the same.
