How it works
Instead of one long list, the catalogue offers several paths through the same world. Each path is a sequence of books with a beginning and an end.
The path
A path is the order in which to read a group of books. There is a path in publication order, and one for each series. Choose a series from its description and read it in its own order.
Discworld has 8 paths:
- Publication order — 44 books: every book, in the order it came out
- Rincewind and the Wizards — 8 books
- The Witches — 6 books
- Death — 5 books
- The City Watch — 9 books
- The Industrial Revolution and Moist von Lipwig — 5 books
- The Gods and Ancient Civilisations — 2 books
- Tiffany Aching — 5 books
Which series first
There is no correct order between the series, only a better starting point for different readers. Each series page says what it is about, and reading starts with its first book.
What it says about each book
- the Bulgarian and the original title;
- the year it first came out;
- a short synopsis of the premise, written for this site;
- for a book in a series, the series and its place in it;
- where there is an edition, a link to a bookshop.
How it is checked
The synopses were written for this site, in its own words. They are not publisher blurbs, and not translations of them. The Bulgarian titles and the names in the synopses have been checked against the printed Bulgarian editions.
Where a fact has not been checked, the field stays empty. The site fills in nothing from memory.
The bookshop links
A link leads to the book's page in the shop. Prices and availability are the shop's: the site does not track them, is not a party to any purchase, and takes no commission.
