Sidleways is a fan-made audio adventure inspired by the Discworld novels of Terry Pratchett.
When a bookshop inherited from a mysterious uncle turns out to be tied to the multidimensional chaos of L-Space, our narrator is pulled into a strange, sideways version of Ankh-Morpork — where magic, bureaucracy, and talking dogs are just the start of the weirdness.
Episodes blend original storytelling with references to the Discworld universe, exploring a familiar-yet-offbeat world full of sapient pearwood, guild politics, and suspiciously sentient rodents.
🟢 New episodes dropping regularly.
