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!

I read the bromeliad trilogy at about age 8, and I've just been graduating to more hardcore drugs ever since.

i started with 'the light fantastic' cuz the friend i got it from was sure it's the first book to read.
so my second was 'the colour of magic'.
