About this listen

"Hi! Believe it or not, I'm a world famous actor. No really, I am. Let me explain…. You may not recognize my name - or my face for that matter - but it's very likely you've seen me at work. I've managed to cram quite a bit into my 30-year acting career. In fact, I've helped put more bums on cinema seats than Will Smith or Tom Hanks. Who else can say that they've helped destroy a Death Star? Defeated an evil sorceress? Taught magic to Harry Potter? Become a Jedi Master? Reluctantly hitchhiked across the galaxy in search of the answer to the Ultimate Question? Or embarked (six times, no less) on a psychotic killing spree as a gold-obsessed leprechaun?

"I've also performed in a jazz club with the late, great Ray Charles, been kicked in the head by Ricky Gervais (23 times), and have successfully navigated the Peterborough one-way system on more than one occasion. You may also have noticed that, at three-foot-six, I am ever so slightly below average height. My genes are arranged in a vaguely peculiar manner, which means I have a disorder that no one can pronounce (spondyloepiphyseal dysplasia congenita - go on, try!) and very few people understand. This has thrown up its own trials and tribulations - particularly when my wife and I tried to start a family - but also in an everyday kind of way: surviving a supermarket shopping trip, getting into fights with drunks, that sort of thing.

"So, without further preamble - except to add that George Lucas, Carrie Fisher, Val Kilmer, Ron Howard, Ricky Gervais (amongst others) have chipped in - I urge you, discerning listener, to download and discover what life is like when it really is too short. At the very least, George Lucas will finally explain why there really is no underwear in space - and who wouldn't want to know that?"
—Warwick Davis

Featured Article: Tap into Your Inner Jedi (or Sith) with the 66 Best Star Wars Audiobooks in the Galaxy


In the 45 years since George Lucas's interstellar fantasy epic Star Wars first hit theaters, the saga has grown to include 12 canonical feature-length films (and counting), a growing number of shows (both animated and live-action), and hundreds of novels and comics inspired by that galaxy far, far away. But there's nothing quite like the magic of a Star Wars audiobook. The stories featured in this collection are as vast and varied as the universe in which they're set.

This book was excellent from cover to cover. Full of great anecdotes. And hilarious. I had no idea that Warwick Davis acted in so many great movies. It was a treat from beginning to end. If there was a part two, I’d buy it immediately.

This book is so well wrote. But add in the face that Mr. Davis reads it takes it to a whole new level. I can imagine me meeting Warwick and we getting along so well he tell me his life story. Good and bad times he holds nothing back. Funny and insightful sometimes and I laugh out loud. The sad times in his life had me tearing up as I too know what’s it’s like to lose a child. Definitely worth the read. I just wish he would go more into how he felt being in “Time Bandits” lol

Best friends forever

He is interesting, talented, funny, and a joy to hear. I loved this. So positive and uplifting. Highly recommend.

Narration is superb

I've listened to a lot of celebrity memoirs, and this has been one of my favorites. As a child of the '80s, I must have watched both Willow and Return of the Jedi dozens of times, so Warwick Davis is part of my childhood. As a young adult, I fell in love with the Harry Potter series. As such, Davis' stories from his film sets have been super entertaining for me to listen to. Those are interspersed with personal stories and anecdotes which are equally enjoyable. The narrator is fabulous and makes the reading sound like his own first-person narrative-- I feel like I'm listening to Warwick himself. Absolutely worth the listen.

Thoroughly Entertaining
