Discover Sir Terry Pratchett's Discworld, the beloved comic fantasy universe that’s brimming with wit, wisdom, and wonder. Start where it all began in the seminal novel The Color of Magic, which follows the misadventures of the inept wizard Rincewind as he serves as tour guide to Twoflower, Discworld's first-ever sightseer. The hapless duo’s journeys continue in The Light Fantastic and Sourcery, where the scale of world-threatening hazards (and accompanying absurdities) increase exponentially. You’ll get over 35 Discworld novels in all, touching all corners of this whimsical realm and all manner of its denizens, and you’ll help Room to Read with your purchase!

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.
