About this listen
Brought to you by Penguin.
A hilarious fantasy, perfect for ages seven and up, by master storyteller Terry Pratchett - the first book he ever wrote!
In the beginning, there was nothing but endless flatness. Then came the Carpet....
That's the old story everyone knows and loves (even if they don't really believe it). But now the Carpet is home to many different tribes and peoples and there's a new story in the making.
The story of Fray, sweeping a trail of destruction across the Carpet, and two brothers, who set out on an adventure to end all adventures.

excellent narration
David Tennant is great at giving characters voices. I loved the premise of the carpet and the fray: a world within a world

Great story with great narration
The Carpet People is a book co-written by the young Terry Pratchett and the older Terry Pratchett. It's a small gem and, as all Pratchett books, can't be recommended enough.
Mr. Tennant's narration is absolutely brilliant! Now that Penguin Audio is re-recording Pratchett's books, they should get David Tennant to read as many of them as possible.

I wish I could give this six stars!
I am a long, long standing fan of Sir Terry Pratchett and have read this wonderful book many times, but David Tennant’s excellent reading has made it even better. Will listen to this many times again I am sure.

Wonderful narration!
I have always loved Terry Pratchett, and when I heard David Tennant was reading I had no choice but to sign up!
Wonderful to listen to - the voices were just right, and Tennant clearly understood and enjoyed both the story and Pratchett's trademark humour.
Now do the whole Discworld series please Mr Tennant... or at least the Bromeliad!

Fabulous!
Such fun and fabulously narrated. David Tennant is completely wonderful and I have loved Terry Pratchett all my adult life. These books are like a comfort blanket and David brings them to life beautifully.

A Brilliant Telling Of An Old Favourite
The Carpet People has been one of my favourite books for 20-odd years. David Tennants narration is brilliant and I recommend this audiobook to any Pratchett fan.
