Now playing: Mrs Bradshaw’s Handbook

This week’s list includes Mrs Bradshaw’s Handbook, from Terry Pratchett. Press play and stay for every chapter.

Authorised by Mr Lipwig of the Ankh-Morpork and Sto Plains Hygienic Railway himself, Mrs Georgina Bradshaw’s invaluable guide to the destinations and diversions of the railway deserves a place in the luggage of any traveller, or indeed armchair traveller, upon the Disc.  From the twine walk of Great Slack to the souks of Zemphis: edifying sights along the route. Ticketing, nostrums and transporting your swamp dragon: essential hints on the practicalities of travel. Elegant resorts and quaint inns: respectable and sanitary lodgings for all species and heights. From worm-herding to Fustic Cake: diverting trivia on the crafts, foods and brassica traditions of the many industrious people for whom the railway is now a vital link to the Century of the Anchovy.  Replete with useful titbits, Mrs Bradshaw’s Handbook offers a view of the Sto Plains like no other. Beautifully narrated by Penelope Keith with Michael Fenton Stevens.  ©2014 Terry and Lyn Pratchett and The Discworld Emporium (P)2014 Random House Audiobooks
