Summary
Brought to you by Penguin.
The audiobook of Making Money is narrated by Richard Coyle, who starred as Moist von Lipwig in the television adaptation of Going Postal. BAFTA and Golden Globe award-winning actor Bill Nighy (Love Actually; Pirates of the Caribbean; Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows) reads the footnotes, and Peter Serafinowicz (Star Wars: Episode I - The Phantom Menace; Shaun of the Dead) stars as the voice of Death. Featuring a new theme tune composed by James Hannigan.
'IF YOU COULD SELL THE DREAM TO ENOUGH PEOPLE, NO ONE DARED WAKE UP.'
The Royal Bank of Ankh-Morpork is facing a crisis and needs a shake-up in management. Cue Moist von Lipwig, Postmaster General and former con artist. If anyone can rescue the city's ailing financial institution, it's him. He doesn't really want the job, but the thing is, he doesn't have a choice.
Moist has many problems to solve as part of his new role: the chief cashier is almost certainly a vampire, the chairman needs his daily walkies, there's something strange happening in the cellar, and the Royal Mint is running at a loss.
Moist begins making some ambitious changes ... and some dangerous enemies. Because money is power and certain stakeholders will do anything to keep a firm grip on both...
The first book in the Discworld series-The Colour of Magic-was published in 1983. Some elements of the Discworld universe may reflect this.

Moist Makes Money!
Richard Coyle again nails Moist Von Lipwig et al in this sequel to Going Postal.
Considering this is a book about Bankers and Banking, it's a remarkably kind book, but no less cynical than usual and No less funny.

Another perfectly narrated Moist von Lipwig tail.
A fun story with the expected great characters narrated by the excellent team of Richard Coyle, Bill Nighy and Peter Serafinowicz. Simply a joy.

Superb
A great story and, surprisingly, an even better narration than the great one given by Stephen Briggs (a couple of tiny quibbles, e.g. not knowing how to pronounce deshabille - why don't narrators look up words if they don't know them?, but that's really me being very nit-picky,)
While the character voices weren't quite as distinctive as those given by Stephen Briggs, they were nevertheless all discernible and appropriate. A couple were less grating than those Stephen had chosen, which is why I ended up preferring this version. And I love this narrator's voice! Very pleasing to the ear.
Unfortunately, the same does not hold true of the first in the Moist von Lipwig series (Going Postal) where I thought Stephen Briggs' version was superior, so I'll have to listen to these two with different narrators!

Genius!
Story takes a while to find its pace but this is an absolutely delight. Hilarious in places and peppered with Pratchett wisdom throughout, expertly narrated with Richard Coyle's velvety tones. Straight laced accountancy is balanced perfectly with a risque undertone which gets away with just being shy of cringy in places. However, this all adds colour to the superb characters while the various story threads are ultimately tied up in a satisfying black leather and rubber bow. I am off to offer Anoia a shallow kitchen drawer and potato masher in the hope she might bless us with more please.

Fantastic
Fantastic book brought to life with another amazing audio book. I don't know who Alice Twomey is but she's worth her weight in gold as providing you never ask for it. GNU Pterry.
