Terry Pratchett · 2 Audible UK recordings compared
Short answer
Indira Varma. Hers is the complete book, and she reads all the Tiffany Aching novels in the current set, so the sequence stays in one voice. The Tony Robinson listing is abridged.
The recordings, compared
| Narrator | Length | Type | Notes |
|---|---|---|---|
| Indira Varma, with Bill Nighy and Steven Cree Our pick | 8 hrs 48 mins | Unabridged | The current recording, complete. Audible's description says Bill Nighy reads the footnotes and Steven Cree voices the Nac Mac Feegles. |
| Tony Robinson | 3 hrs 35 mins | Abridged | Marked abridged in Audible's listing data; the description does not say so either way. |
The recording we recommend is also on Audiobooks.com — the same Indira Varma reading, listed at 8 hrs 49 mins when we checked on 21 October 2026. Their one-credit plan is listed at £7.99 a month before applicable taxes, and its credits expire after three months — the two models compared. We earn a commission on that link.
