I can't read Terry Pratchett

Jan 03, 2009 16:43

I don't know why. It is like the words slide out of my brain while I read them. I tried to start The Colour of Magic last night twice. I read the Prolouge, then Chapter one and I felt so confused, i read it again. Maybe my mind can't wrap around fantasy novels anymore. Maybe I will try again later.

I only managed to read The colour of Magic after I'd read a few more of his books. I'd recommend starting on Guards! Guards!

:D

Oh you don't have to read them in order??

Nope... I haven't read all of them, just the ones that feature my favourite characters :D

Cool. Thanks for that info and suggestions!

There are only a few sets that really rely on one another (CoM and The Light Fantastic being two). I would try something later. His style of presentation and his focus have shifted a bit a few times.

I think Wyrd Sisters is one of my favorites. Mort and Reaper Man are also very good.

I will have to look those up next time I go to the library. Thanks!
