As I mentioned, I started at the beginning, assuming that one ALWAYS reads in publication order. I enjoyed the beginning. I collected perhaps 20 of the books. Then I got stuck on the 2nd book or so and couldn't touch them for perhaps 20 years, even though I already had many of the books.
Until I picked up "Clay Feet", completely out of sequence. And discovered a real PLOT and a bit of MORAL too. Wowsers. That's when I got back into Terry Pratchett, and discovered a reading sequence that worked for me. I will eventually read the rest of Rincewind. But not yet.
