Terry Deary and Martin Brown’s brilliant books about the nastiest periods in history have now - with the help of some astounding actors and directed by Dirk Maggs - been transformed into a series of audio extravaganzas.

Featuring new, extra material not found anywhere in the books, these sound spectaculars are just as thrilling and spilling, funny and fast as their printed counterparts. Horrible Histories are guaranteed to bring you history with the nasty bits left in!

The Savage Stone Age clubs you over the head and drags you back to the days when people lived in caves, hunted wild animals and had never heard of table manners.

Find out the truth about Stonehenge, and what suffering scientists do with Stone Age poo.

History has never been so horrible!

Based on the bestselling books written by Terry Deary and illustrated by Martin Brown.  Published by arrangement with Scholastic Ltd.
