I'm biased when it comes to Terry Pratchett. His books are so full of invention, humour and wit that I find it difficult to comprehend when someone doesn't like them. There are now some 40 or so Discworld books. This is no. 4 in the series. You don't have to read them in order, but if you do become addicted it will help as the backstory for each character builds. The books are constant source of delight that I have read and reread. They will give more pleasure than many of the 453 books ahead of Mort in this list.
