Who here also likes Discworld?
It was one of the things I loved reading (and re-reading recently).


Gonna be honest one of my favourite books is "Going Postal" (and the movie was pretty good too).

Prachett is one of my favorite writers of all time. I really should sit down and read all of Discworld one of these days.


It's a cliche, but Equal Rites is my favorite still.

I don't know if I can pick a favorite book but Death may be my favorite character, Pratchett's is definitely my favorite version of Death

the revolution is now :o)

See the thing is if you mention any book to me I will go "oh I should probably (re)read that", because that's kinda how all of them are?

@Skitis

that's so real. the only thing to dislike about any of the discworld books is that they end.

some people trash on the early ones but even those are perfect in their own way to me. the color of magic is peak satire with a surprising amount of heart, even if it only goes up from there.

I think an oddball sub-series that is worth a mention is the "Science of Discworld" ones. Educational and entertaining, in some ways.

I've only read a few books in the Death series, but they're some of my favourites of all time. I made this drawing of susan sto-helit a while back

Again, this is the thing, you're listing Discworld books and I'm going "oh wow, I really gotta re-read these!" hahaha
