Publisher Description
Brought to you by Penguin.
Time is a resource. Everyone knows it has to be managed. You mess with it at your peril. You can let it move fast or slowly but what you mustn't do is allow it to stop.
On the Discworld, time management is the job of the Monks of History, who store it and pump it from the places where it's wasted (like the underwater - how much time does a codfish need?) to places like cities, where there's never enough time.
But the construction of the world's first truly accurate clock starts a race against, well, time for Lu Tze and his apprentice Lobsang Ludd. Because it will stop time. And when time stands still, everything stops with it. Then, there really is no future.
Please note: this is a vintage recording. The audio quality may not be up to modern standards.
Customer Reviews
Not narrated by Tony Robinson
Unfortunately, though the description claims it, this is not narrated by Tony Robinson. Also, even though the version is abridged I had thought it would have started at the beginning of the story, not just abruptly a few chapters in. Disappointed and requested refund.
