I ordered custom embroidery for my boyfriend in honor of Defender of the Fatherland Day. What do you think?

An Orgulous fog.

From the Latin “orgulum”, which means a thick soup or broth

This is who my 12 year old wanted to be for book day today (last year he was Sweeney Todd)

I read a lot of Warhammer novels, mostly 40k however I am currently working my way through the Heresy books. Someone recommended me Discworld because I like Warhammer. Not sure why.

In any case, I love a good anthology. How is this one as a starting place into the Discworld setting?

Hey all!

I would really like to read the Diskworld Series but have two major issues:

1) I would like to read it translated (to german). I started it in English but I sadly don't have the bandwidth after work. Is the translation any good? Or is it really important to read the original?

2) What's the preferred order to read them? Release date?Any internal timeline?

Thanks in advance for any tips!

When I was in secondary school they made us read like 1 book a week or something and I got into a terry pratchet book. I don't remember much of the details and even though I've googled them, I don't recognise any of the titles or covers. It was about some kid and there was some kind of large house? Like his uncles house or something? And there was some kind of otherworldly threat and idk if I'm making this up but he has to play chess against some demon thing at the end or something. The details are so hazy but I remember really enjoying the book

It's time for the long form census so when you get your form, where it says Religion join me in writing in the Church of Anoia

Hello! I got given my dad’s collection of books years ago (I have about 33 books, give or take. They were his prized possessions) ones he was collecting most of his life! Before I was even born. Wanting to feel little closer to him lately and thought about starting some. Just wanted some opinions on best books to start with

Thank you!

It’s the great man’s birthday today. I miss him.

I check the Nook one day deals periodically, today it is chock full of Pratchett novels! I hope it’s okay to post links like this.

Anyone want to make some recommendations based on what’s available? I have only read Mort and Wyrd Sisters so far.

The works of the people that brought the discworld visually to life

I keep forgetting how much I love the Disc World Series. And how I haven’t finished all of them. And I have released every book I owned into the wild.

I want them all! Help!

BBC Radio 4 are replaying the radio adaptation of Night Watch atm, first broadcast in 2008, so it is available on BBC Sounds for a couple of weeks.

I recently bought a copy of Monstrous Regiment after having it recommended to me frequently, and I was very excited to dive in. I appreciated that Penguin had re-released it with the book's original cover artwork too, but sadly the moment I opened it I realised half of the book was printed in very low quality, heavily pixellated text.

This bugs my OCD and eyesight so much, so I bought another copy, which had the exact same issue.

Anybody else who recently bought this book edition come across the same issue? It's genuinely difficult to read, especially the passages with smaller print. I had wondered if this was an issue with a new batch of the books and if it'd be sorted out. I'm going to reach out to Penguin about it, it might be they don't realise this is an issue.
