Forums - General - Do you read Terry Pratchett novels

I've read all the Discworld novels, some of them more than twice. Also appreciating Good Omens, which might be one of the most awesome literature team-ups ever with Neil Gaiman joining Pratchett.

Also am currently reading truckers to my son.



Have read all of them except Good Omens (keep on forgetting). I hope he gets to write a few more.



Aurally examine my music!

Wear gaudy colours or avoid display. It's all the same.

Be warned, I will use walls of polysyllables and complex clauses as a defence against lucid argument.

Wand to read a creepy thread?

I have read them all at least twice, including Good Omens. The light fantastic is not a good place to start, not only is it a direct sequel (the only one), but it is a sequel to the worst book in the series, and a terrible book itself. Interesting Times is pretty good, but it is kind of a sequel to the Light Fantastic, and you may miss some of the humour.

I usually recommend beginning from Mort, which really is quite a good book. Terry Pratchett is one of the few authors, however, where each book is pretty much always better than the previous one, so picking up a late book might be a good idea (but in some cases, could spoil some of the previous ones)



Help! I'm stuck in a forum signature!

^I haven't started at the light fantastic, I have read The colour of magic twice.

I've also read Mort lol
