Anyone know a good entry novel from this set? Is the recommended in the promo good? I know that Discworld is something else, but a complete noob
It depends on your tastes. I started with equal rites and wasn’t disappointed. Don’t start with I Shall Wear Midnight though. There are a lot of excellent places to start and that just isn’t one of them.
Seriously though, Mort, Guards Guards, Pyramids, Going Postal, Equal Rites, Wyrd Sisters, or The Colour of Magic.
Actually no. Small Gods. Nobody was ever disappointed by Small Gods. It’s a one off. It’s funny and clever and makes you think. It’s not his best by any means but it’s around where he hit his stride. It’s chronologically separated. Read Small Gods, it’s excellent.
I love small gods and nobody ever talks about it
