fun intro the discworld series
This is the first Discworld book but my second, having read Small Gods first, and although supposedly they can be read in any order I prefer, much like Star Wars, to read in the published sequence, as in this case (not Star Wars), it looks like the books get better over time. This one is still fun but doesn't have the sly digs of Small Gods, it's more like a D&D parody. And while I complained about the lack of women with speaking roles in Small Gods, there are a couple of notable female characters here, admittedly with high levels of nudity (it's a miracle HBO didn't adapt this instead of Game of Thrones), but both in leadership positions, one queen and one goddess, so take that DEI and smoke it!
