DW: Posting in this folder..

[Rob, Roberator]

Since there seems to be a lot of excitement about not only Wyrd Sisters, but Discworld in general, we're going to do something slightly different this month.

First I got permissions from the powers that be to rename the folder to also include Discworld.

So here's what I'm thinking..

If you're discussing the April pick use our normal format of:

WS: [Thread Subject] ([Full/Light/No] Spoilers)

Ex: WS: Comparisons to Macbeth (Light Spoilers)

And if you're talking about another book/discworld in general use the format:

DW: [BOOK_TITLE] ([Full/Light/No] Spoilers)

IE: DW: Small Gods (Full Spoilers), DW: Guards! Guards! (No Spoilers), etc..

Since I haven't read most of these books though, I'm going to be leaving it up to people creating/participating in the non Wryd Sisters threads to clearly mark spoilers and indicate the book.

Does this sound good to everyone?

Works for me! :)

Thanks Rob! Now I'll feel better about reading Color of Magic instead. As I've said before in local book club, I have to read in publish order!

[Rob, Roberator]

Yeah. I'm doing Mort atm myself for that reason.

[Tassie Dave, S&L Historian]

I bet you both are glad "Raising Steam" wasn't chosen (40th book in series) ;-)

Normally I'd be right there with you. But it sounds like the early books are not required. So I'll forego them. I did read "The Colour of Magic" 30 years ago. I seem to remember enjoying it.

I'm expecting and hoping that there will be Discworld discussion for some time to come. At least for April, I think most of us should focus on Wyrd Sisters, but the series is so incredible.

[Rob, Roberator]

I'll get to Wyrd Sisters before April is over so I can discuss it with the group, but I'm going to finish Mort and read Sourcery first.

But Wyrd Sisterswill be my 6th DW book in about a month's time (I read Colour of Magic sometime last year), so I'll be taking a break after that.

I plan to finish up through 11 though by the end of the year as I already own those.

I've just finished Witches Abroad. Not quite as good as WS but enjoyable nonetheless.
