Description
The audiobook of Hogfather is read by the BAFTA award-winning Sian Clifford (Fleabag, Vanity Fair, Quiz), with BAFTA and Golden Globe award-winning actor Bill Nighy (Love Actually, Pirates of the Caribbean, The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy, Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows) reading the footnotes, and with Peter Serafinowicz (Star Wars: Episode I - The Phantom Menace, Shaun of the Dead) as the voice of Death. Featuring a new theme tune composed by James Hannigan.
Twas the night before Hogswatch and all through the house...something was missing.
The stockings are hanging ready, the sherry and pies are waiting by the fireplace - but where is the jolly fat man with his sack? It's not right to find Death creeping down chimneys and trying to say 'Ho ho ho' - but someone's got to bring the little kiddies their presents. Or else they might stop believing. Belief is important in Discworld, particularly on the last night of the year when the time is turning. If the real man in the red suit isn't found by morning, there won't be a morning. Ever again....
The Discworld novels can be listened to in any order, but Hogfather is the fourth book in the Death series, a festive feast of darkness (but with jolly robots and tinsel too).

Who would want to harm Discworld's most beloved icon? Very few things are held sacred in this twisted, corrupt, heartless -- and oddly familiar -- universe, but the Hogfather is one of them. Yet here it is, Hogswatchnight, that most joyous and acquisitive of times, and the jolly old, red-suited gift-giver has vanished without a trace. And there's something shady going on involving an uncommonly psychotic member of the Assassins' Guild and certain representatives of Ankh-Morpork's rather extensive criminal element.
