If you cannot get into the first two books, get the movie on DVD and watch that. I found the movie to be very good. The thing is, there are characters/places introduced in The Colour of Magic that you want to know about and their story. So yes, it is very relevant to read the first two books because they pop up in later books and you'll be lost otherwise.
