  Brilliant author. My absolute favourite.
  One of my cats is called Esmeralda Weatherwax.

  Be aware that there are over 40 books in the Discworld series and there is, roughly, an order they should be read in.

  You, absolutely, need Colour of Magic before you get The Light Fantastic. They are, effectively, Part 1 and Part 2.

  He does Young Adult fiction as well. “Nation” is fantastic.

    Adding on to this, I would strongly strongly recommend not to start with Colour of Magic and Light Fantastic. They're ok when you're familiar with his work, but make getting into his books quite difficult. Equal Rites or Mort would be good from the selection above, or the Vimes timeline (Guards, Guards).

      Personally I would start with “Good Omens”. It isn’t part of the Discworld series but gives you a taste of his style. I agree the first two aren’t his best, but they are the foundation blocks.

      Agree. Start with guards guards.

  Terry Pratchett is an aboslute legend who brought joy to many - RIP. My all time favourite novel is "Small Gods" and I quite like the witches series as well especially with granny Weatherwax's headology and nanny Ogg dancing to the hedgehog song :)

      The quotes are classic.

      ‘You always used to say I was wanton, when we was younger,’ said Nanny.
      Granny hesitated, caught momentarily off balance. Then she waved a hand irritably.
      ‘You was, of course,’ she said dismissively. ‘But you never used magic for it, did you?’
      ‘Din’t have to,’ said Nanny happily. ‘An off-the-shoulder dress did the trick most of the time.’
      ‘Right off the shoulder and onto the grass, as I recall,’ said Granny. (Witches Abroad)

  These books are all pretty funny, even if fantasy isn’t really your thing. But especially if it is.

        It works on almost anything, including mac

        https://www.scummvm.org/downloads/

        You just need to provide your own copy of the game. You will be able to use the DOS version within macOS because the program is acting as a Virtual Machine.
