Wash ,'The Message'
There's more to life than watching Buffy the Vampire Slayer! No. Really, there is! Honestly! Here's a place for Buffistas to come and discuss what it is they're reading, their favorite authors and poets. "Geez. Crack a book sometime."
reading all the Night's Watch books
Are you suggesting interspersing the Discworld books in among a publishing-order of the Watch books? Which is a good idea. Because the interpersonal developments amongst the Watch have their best effect, in my mind, when seen linearly.
I'm not suggesting anything, but I don't think I understand your question.
She's saying that rather than read all the Watch books in order, read all the Watch books in order and include non-Watch books in publishing order where they fit.
Or non-Watch out of order as the fancy takes you. I think the Watch books are more linear than the others. Granny Weatherwax transcends linearity.
The Welcome to Night Vale novel is out today, and it's fucking great.
You’ve all inspired me to finally read the majority of the Discworld books. I’d read a few but never followed up on the rest. I’ve decided to start with Equal Rites and am loving it so far.
Yay!
I'm biases about Discworld reading order, because the Witches books are my favorites and I want EVERYONE TO READ THEM.
Still haven't read The Shepherd's Crown. We were traveling, so no books that will make me cry on trips, and then I came home to the tie-in novelization for Crimson Peak. Which is so full of delightfully purple, overwrought prose that Anne Rice is gnashing her fangs in jealousy.
I will say, there are bits where the posthumous editing is evident, it's not poorly done, it's just, his voice is so distinctive, you know? You can just tell when it's not him. It's mostly just in the bits where they're explaining the as previously seen parts, though, so you can just skim through.
Has anyone else bought and read the eARC of Bujold's Gentleman Jole and the Red Queen yet? I just finished it earlier this evening.
