bump for RIncewind

Is Nation in the same universe? It's my favourite by Pratchett.

favourite series?

nope, its an alternative earth, not discworld

>>2590555
Isn't Roundworld our earth? The world the unseen university made? Wouldnt that sort of make it in Discworld, then?

>>2590557

its neither round- nor diskworld- its just an alternative earth, end of story

>>2590558

PS roundworld IS our earth

Tried reading Color of Magic, am stalled. It's amusing, but something about it... bores me. I don't know why.

once you read the first two the reast of the universe sort of clicks into place

>>2590562

It's because Prachett's a shit writer.

There's no real plot in Colour of Magic, it's just a collection of things happening. Finish it, and read The Light Fantastic (a direct sequel to CoM). That's a proper Discworld novel, with proper plot and so on.

If you still don't like it after that, Discworld might not be for you. The Light Fantastic is waaaay better than Colour of Magic though, which in my opinion is the worst Discworld book by far (though it being the first excuses it really).

Try reading the series of books involving Death. Find out which ones from >>2590569
Despite how dark and edgy XD! I may sound, the Death books are my favourite, closely followed by the Watch books.

Of the main series' it goes, imo:
Death > Watch > Rincewind > Industrial > the various misc books >>>>>>>>>>>>>>> Witches.
