First pTerry book?

Bronze Member

Which of the "Discworld" books did you read first?

I was lent a copy of Mort by a friend. His wife was becoming addicted to the then small series of Discworld books and he thought I would like them too... (he was right!)

After borrowing all the books I well and truely hooked!
