Discworld

Books Forum

Who likes Discworld? I've read about six of the books and I love them, but I think it depends on you're sense of humour. It's very clever, and kind of random! I think Terry Pratchet is a genius.

Yes! Prachett is great. I've read almost all the Discworld books and the more you read the better they get. I'm re-reading Soul Music right now and enjoying myself immensely. So many clever details to be found. I may have to read the Night Watch books again after this. I really love the city of Ankh-Morpork.

Ankh-Morpork is brilliant.The humour is really clever. I've read The Colour of Magic, The Light Fantastic, Equal Rites, Mort, Sourcery and Reaper Man.

The Light Fantastic and Sourcery are among the few I haven't read. The others are great and his later books are even better. Just got finished with Soul Music. It's sort of a continuation of Mort and Reaper Man, dealing with the exploits of Death, among other things. I recommend it highly. And if you want to read more about Ankh-Morpork, Guards! Guards! is a good one to start with. It's the first of the books about the Ankh-Morprok Night Watch. They are probably my favourite books in the Discworld series. Or the Death ones. Or the witches. Well all of them really.

My favourites are probably the death ones or the wizard ones. You should definately read the Light Fantastic. It sort of carries on from The Colour of Magic.

Nice signature by the way.

I'll have to put The Light Fantastic on my reading list. I don't really know why I haven't read it already. It's been a while since I've read about Rincewind so it should be fun.

My signature is a Jack Handy quote. There are many pages on the internet devoted to his thoughts. Here's a link to one. Funny stuff.
