2.0 out of 5 stars It's just not good., Jul 12 2004

By A Customer

While very slightly better than the animated version of Wyrd Sisters, this one is still pretty poor. Poor artwork and animation, poor voicework, with a few exceptions. Save your money for the next Discworld book.

5.0 out of 5 stars Well worth the wait!, Mar 3 2004

By	T. Lee (Oberlin, OH United States) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

This is the coolest animation rendition of any story I've read! The voice acting leaves nothing to be desired (yes, Death will blow you away), the plot flows more smoothly than the book (in fact it's more understandable than the book). The animation, while not exactly disney-standard, does the job of telling the story perfectly well. Just don't buy it from marketsales, I bought it there and waited some 30 days for it to arrive (and they only found out it's on backorder after I emailed them), but in the end it's well worth the wait!

2.0 out of 5 stars They should have let Disney make it., Aug 29 2003

By	Eric Naevdal "Chromosome" (Oslo, Norway) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

I consider myself a fanatic Discworld fan, and was really looking forward to the seeing this (and the Wyrd Sisters animation). Boy, what a disappointment. The animation is way down there with Pokemon. And overly exaggagerated british dialects aren't all that funny either. To bungle this when the books are so good is a goddamn crime.

Save your money and pray to the gods that: 1) The guys who made this never gets to make another one. 2) When the movie comes, the real movie, it is made a lot better than this.

2.0 out of 5 stars Utterly lousy
Now, I wasn't expecting a whole lot, since I never considered Soul Music a great Discworld book; it's one of the handful that are based far too clumsily on real-world stories... Read more

This is the animated version of the discworld book 'soul music'. It will make more sense if you've read the book (not that discworld ever makes sense, it's just internally... Read more

4.0 out of 5 stars A Fanatic Will Forgive the Animation
The story has remained faithful with the book--even letting Death wail on the guitar! The animation is no Disney cartoon series nor is it as smooth as "The Flight of Dragons" but... Read more

4.0 out of 5 stars Enjoyable
If you've read the book and you're a Pratchett fan then I believe you will enjoy this. It keeps the spirt of his books, characters and dialog. Read more
