I've always wanted to get into the discworld series but the number of books is a bit intimidating. Where's a good place to start? Is there some overarching narrative or can you read them in any order?
While there are myriad reading orders that have been devised over the years, my method with long extended series such as this one is simple: I consume them in the order in which they were produced/released.
I would slightly discourage that here. The Color of Magic is fine, but the Light Fantastic is a bit rough. Equal Rites is fine again, but doesn't really focus on the characters that make the Witches series good.
