The titles are:
“Reaper Man”, “Small Gods”, “Wyrd Sisters”, “Moving Pictures”

Went to an adorable book shop and found these guys. I haven’t read Pratchett yet but I feel it’ll be right up my alley

I’m pretty sure I see “Small Gods” and “Wyrd Sisters” recommended a lot and I know you can’t really go wrong, but of these which would you recommend the most? Since this is what I have I’ll read them all eventually

Regardless I’m excited to have gotten physical copies because my library has long wait lists for his books

Edit: Thanks for all of the discussion! This post brought me a lot of positive on an otherwise rough day. I’ve decided to start with “Small Gods”

I just want to say again thank you to everyone who responded to me or to someone else. It’s been a joy hearing what each person has to contribute to the conversation

Even if they fall flat (which I highly doubt) all of your enthusiasm came through and that really in itself means so much. It was truly touching

    I absolutely love the discworld series!! I haven’t read all of them so I couldn’t say which of those is the best, but moving pictures wasn’t bad. I’m really more partial to the city watch “series” that starts with Guards Guards! I will say that I didn’t really get sucked into the “death” series that Reaper Man is a part of.

    Here’s a site that shows the various orders you could read them in:

    They have overarching storylines that connect books, but I don’t think you need to see them as Book I, Book II, Book III.

      Perfect, thank you for that link! It’s a complicated universe but I’d love to get to know it better

      I hear that series recommend a bunch so I’m keeping an eye out. And I appreciate that about this author and these books that there isn’t a particular start
