The titles are:
“Reaper Man”, “Small Gods”, “Wyrd Sisters”, “Moving Pictures”
Went to an adorable book shop and found these guys. I haven’t read Pratchett yet but I feel it’ll be right up my alley
I’m pretty sure I see “Small Gods” and “Wyrd Sisters” recommended a lot and I know you can’t really go wrong, but of these which would you recommend the most? Since this is what I have I’ll read them all eventually
Regardless I’m excited to have gotten physical copies because my library has long wait lists for his books
Edit: Thanks for all of the discussion! This post brought me a lot of positive on an otherwise rough day. I’ve decided to start with “Small Gods”
I just want to say again thank you to everyone who responded to me or to someone else. It’s been a joy hearing what each person has to contribute to the conversation
Even if they fall flat (which I highly doubt) all of your enthusiasm came through and that really in itself means so much. It was truly touching
Point one: you can’t go wrong with Pratchett.
I only read Small Gods, you’ll have to give me feedback on the others after you are done!
Small tangential comment: never skip Pratchett’s footnotes!
and also dont skip the footnote’s footnotes
Nested footnotes, I love it! Those are so fun when authors add extra flavor to an already rich story
The deeper the stack of footnotes the more jewels there are hidden in there
I just gave a thumb through of one and there certainly are footnotes. I didn’t generally skip them but I’ll give these more heed!
A lot of the best humour is in the footnotes.
