REREAD March 2024: Now I see why a lot of people recommend starting to read Discworld here, rather than with Colour of Magic. Pratchett really found his footing here. And the timeless/prescient quality feels even more striking now. Replace the Elucidated Brotherhood's black hoods with red hats and the Supreme Grand Master with QAnon, and it... works exactly the same.
