Where are you in your Discworld journey? Which is your favorite so far?
I’m in Men at Arms, reading in release order. I have no favourite book (I rarely have favorites of any kind), I like most of them very much, though Pyramids, Faust Eric and Small Gods didn’t quite hit my taste. Also, Death is a hilariously relatable character.
