i prefer owning books rather than digital but here is the think about e-books both authors have books so hard to find it's just Not even funny... though with Mcbain a lot of his stuff Hard Case has been putting out well the stuff he did in the 50's. one really good one about a junkie that gets framed for murder is called So Near, So dead i think? and it's one of his 1st books from i think (1952) or (1953) around there that's 3 or 4 years before he even wrote Cop Hater the 1st in the 87th Series.
with Xanth though for a long time i wasn't confused the way i was reading them. but than i stopped reading them for a good number of years and he changed the series a bit.
the 1st let's say Cycle from the 1st book to whatever stopped if i'm not mistaken around the 32nd book. than the 33rd was the next cycle i forget how Anthony put it back than
but the last one i read was the 30th i think? there's nearly 45 of them now in case you are wondering.
i have some of the later ones on paperback but i just could not get into them at all.. than after spending a few years trying to get back into him it finally dawned on me that if i want the series to make sense again for me i'll just start at the very beginning and so i am. i hadn't read A Spell For Chameleon in years and it is a good book but not one of my favorite. nor had i read The Source of magic in years either.
another one that is still good but not my favorite, currently i'm on the 3rd Book going all the way back to (1979) the 1st came out 2 years prior. and it's called Castle Roogna.
as for Terry Pratchett honestly i've never read her before so good luck. the only thing i know about her is that Christopher Lee was in that tv Miniseries years ago and i love Lee as i watch anything that man did.
