The diskworld novels are the greatest literary masterpiece ever created. My favourite is snuff. Its the way prachette portrays the duke of anch. Vimes is wrote perfectly
That's interesting, bc exept of "Science of Discworld" "Small gods were my least favourite. Not bc it's a bad book but it doesn't have some things that I read "Discworld" for. Also it was basically a repetition of my religious studies class.
If you haven't read go get it. It's one of his best works. But then they all are masterpieces. So far there's only one I have read yet its The Unadulterated Cat.
I can’t bring myself to read the shepherds crown, I just can’t. It’s almost as if all the work I’ve done on dealing with endings means eff all if it’s about this.
The first STP book I read was Reaper Man whilst I was on holiday at my grandparents and bored. I was HOOKED! I have the full collection of his Discworld books and I really struggle to think of a favourite. The one that moves me the most though is Shepherds Crown. 😢
I just went to a used bookstore to look for Terry Pratchett books and the owner says he almost never gets them. For good reason. I laughed so hard when you said a vampire with a suicidal facination with flash photography. "Dog Food!?" His indignation 😂😂😂 My personal favourate is Witches Abroad. No more happy endings!
I don't think I could answer that question. My favorite animated/movie adaptation of Terry Prachett's books is Weird Sisters. Anytime i feel sad or down I watch it. "Ha, you missed! Arrgh", "Perhaps you weren't aware of what I was aiming at. Mother of the night indeed..." Peace y'all
The Photographer-Vampire carries a little shovel and broom with him, so that after every picture he takes, someone can collect his dust to reanimate him later. The Truth is amazing.
All of Terry Pratchett book are great thereafter than Harry Potter and The Lord of the Rings if you ask me every book will keep you laughing from start to finish.
I was told not to read the color magic first that I should read going postal because I'm a postal employee but I just didn't get the book at all. So I'm going to give Discworld one more chance and go back and start from the color magic
I'd suggest the City Watch Books. - Well, if you want to read that in order, I would start with Guards! Guards! first. But I think Night's Watch is his best one. The Watch-Books are about an underfinanced and understaffed police-force filled with... somewhat lost characters, under the lead of a drunkard that have taken in a too idealistic new recruit. It's a persiflage on detective novels, and it has my favourite persiflage of dragon-fantasy-books and also of the most dramatic moment in the Hobbit, and how he handled it is hilarious. He spins the Story of the Watchmen on, following their careers. But Night's Watch is the climax of the cycle and pretty serious and philosophically deep, and made Sam Vimes my favourite character. And it is for you, if you are into 'idealistic politics' like the story of 'Les Miserables.' People that read that book wear lilac in April, because they were there with the 'People's Republic of Trecle Mine Road'. We fight for Freedom, Justice, reasonably priced Love and... - a hard boiled egg.
All the books with Death in it or the Unseen University wizards are my fav. But I guess Sam Munk from the city watch is the most easily relatable protagonist especially if you don't usually read this type of book
I suggest you start with Mort. It's #4 in the series and it represent the BEST of the Discworld series. DEATH as a main character. The phenomenon word play and mental flips. It's the book that introduced me to Discworld and I've been laughing since.
You're probably thinking about Making Money, where Moist von Lipwig becomes Master of the Royal Mint and also acts on behalf of the bank's chairman, a small dog. Also a good book but the protagonist isn't the same person as William de Worde
Do it. There are handy charts on where to start. I went in the order of publication and it’s a point of contention whether that’s wise since the first two novels are objectively less tightly constructed and well-written than later ones. However, I was extremely into it from the start and I heard it working for a lot of people.
It is the best in my opinion too. Much be bias as a creative writing and philosophy student. This one is the best for both the social commentary, plot, comedy and philosophy about truth/words itself.
I just finished The Truth, it is a top tier discworld book.
Terry Pratchett is the GOAT
Yes, The Truth is great. Otto von Chriek (the vampire) is one of my favorite characters on the Disc
The Truth legitimately is one of the best Pratchett books, in my opinion
Absolutely agree, Terry Pratchett's books are amazing.
I love Terry Pratchett and his Discworld books. I've reread all of them several times.

There is no best STP book and there are no most favourite, but Small gods made me read them more times then others ;-).

Come on. We all have that 1 that stand out more than the others. Mine is Witches Abroad.

@@theweyrdthe sameeee, I bought it...years ago 😂 probably never going to read it

Isn’t it weird how you can grieve so deeply the death of a fictional character?
Sir Terry will forever be my favourite author of all time and that’s not hyperbole. I’m still deciding on what tattoo to get in his honour. ❤
It'll be all right as long as you've got your potato
-ing right it will
Terry Pratchett is my fav too😊 his books are so much more than what they seem

It’s one of my favorites. Even better than the synopsis. I never quite feel like the blurbs live up to the story.
The "booktuber starter set book shelf" 😅😂

Don't forget his vial of the b-word or he'll get dog food again. 😂
Truth is an amazing book. I’d say Night Watch is my favourite, though…
All of Terry Pratchett book are great thereafter than Harry Potter and The Lord of the Rings if you ask me every book will keep you laughing from start to finish.
Promise of blood was such a good book
"A lie can run around the world before the truth has it's boots on."
Well the truth has got its boots on, and it's started kicking!
That sounds absolutely awsome
Brandon's favorite book is Dune.

The truth is my favorite too. I read ut before i knew about disc world
Doesn't the truth have the same protagonist as going postal?
You're probably thinking about Making Money, where Moist von Lipwig becomes Master of the Royal Mint and also acts on behalf of the bank's chairman, a small dog.
Also a good book but the protagonist isn't the same person as William de Worde
@@michaellodge3849 you're right that is what I was thinking of! My mistake.
Best author ever
…I really need to start reading Discworld.
Do it. There are handy charts on where to start. I went in the order of publication and it’s a point of contention whether that’s wise since the first two novels are objectively less tightly constructed and well-written than later ones. However, I was extremely into it from the start and I heard it working for a lot of people.
I see someBrent Weeks in the background
Great book but there are many Great discworld books probably nightwatch is top 3 but not the truth
He's said multiple times his favorite is Dune
Great book!
Its great book
Good book
It is the best in my opinion too. Much be bias as a creative writing and philosophy student. This one is the best for both the social commentary, plot, comedy and philosophy about truth/words itself.
His favorite book is Les Miserables
GNU Ptrerry
Pratchett is the GOAT and Sanderson is a hack
It is a great book. Prstchrtt just got better and better and better.
