I don't know how this made it up so high on HN, but I'm glad to see that there are other Discworld fans on here. It's an incredible series.


I just started reading the series myself a few weeks ago, and I'm completely addicted now.

I like the idea of a really long series, because too often I get sucked into the world of a story, and I'm disappointed when the story ends.


Sadly this series will end because Pratchett has been diagnosed with a form of dementia. He will be sadly missed, but his books are chock full of obscure references that I am enjoying hunting down.

It's worth dipping into the Annotated Pratchett File:
