ofpaintedflowers:fireflysummers:the-knights-who-say-book:what the fUCK KIND OF SERIES IS THIS?it’s too long??? howIt’s a series you will never regret reading. It’s clever and funny, beautiful and angry, and leaves you feeling as though you, yes you, can change the world. It’s a story that mocks the powerful and empowers the weak. That takes a step back and let’s you see how laughable, beautiful, how ugly, how incredible humanity is. It doesn’t have to be read in any particular order, or all at once. They aren’t meant to be spread through like so many YA/NA books these days, rather read thoughtfully and then read again and again, then given to a friend as a dog eared offering to please, please read this. Too long you say?If you embark into the Discworld, I can guarantee that at the end you will feel that whatever it was, it was not long enough. @ofpaintedflowers any additional thoughts?Don’t vow to read it someday, get started right now. Start with Guards! Guards! or Mort or the Wee Free Men or Small Gods or Monstrous Regiment. Like summers said, all books are stand-alone stories so it’s not a commitment, it’s easy and goes fast, just get started.Terry Pratchett’s writing is so unlike anyone else’s, it’s unpretentious, poignant, incredibly real in the simplicity of its expression, hilarious in its way of avoiding and poking fun at storytelling clichés. Discworld will make you fall in love with the world, with humanity and its best sides without sugar-coating it and handing you pink glasses, and it will show you the ugliness in it without cheap grimdark horror shows.You’re asking who let Terry Pratchett do this but believe me, after reading the series, you will be furious about what it was that didn’t let him do more. -- source link
