Yeah, I wouldn't recommend people start with Color of Magic Darth_Katie Send a noteboard - 08/09/2011 06:43:20 PM
Mostly because, well, the first couple of books just aren't as great as the later ones.

That is, they're still GOOD, but someone who is wondering why I'm a Pratchett fanatic would be a bit bemused as to why if they had only read Color of Magic, I think.


I think it's better to go back to those once you have an appreciation for Discworld.

Which Pratchett book should I try first? - 08/09/2011 01:56:11 AM 880 Views
Hm. I don't know if I'd call Pratchett "cerebral." He's more... British. - 08/09/2011 03:26:53 AM 639 Views
