first dnf of the year
I wanted to enjoy it, I really did. my family loves diskworld and Terry Pratchett. I chose one at random after enjoying going postal 5ish years ago.
however, the humor is my issue. it was the same issue with neverstone the mad elf. i would rather read this as a comic or webcomic, rather than listen as a book. I'll give another a try, but I may have to look up the best rated ones
dnf/5
Terry Pratchett's works have captivated readers for decades, particularly his Discworld series, which combines humor and social commentary in a whimsical fantasy setting. Those unfamiliar with his storytelling might find it beneficial to start with some of his most acclaimed novels, like 'Guards! Guards!' or 'Mort,' which showcase his unique style and wit. Additionally, many fans of Pratchett also enjoy adaptations of his books, such as graphic novels and audiobooks, which may provide a different medium that caters to diverse tastes. For first-time readers, exploring reader reviews on platforms like Goodreads can be instrumental in pinpointing which titles may best suit your preferences. Remember that everyone's taste in humor varies, and if a particular book doesn't land for you, it doesn't diminish Pratchett's impact on the fantasy genre or the joy his works bring to millions. Consider joining forums or fan groups where fellow readers can share recommendations and their thoughts on various adaptations. Using platforms like #booktok can lead you to insightful discussions and reviews, making your next reading choice more enjoyable.
Moving Pictures was the very first Discworld book I read. I was hooked! 🥰
