It really depends on your taste; I'm happy just to have the City Watch books and keep them, the rest (as far as I am concerned) can be left to one side.

I wouldn't say loathe, but the first few books are quite different to the rest of the series, he really hadn't found his style.
Discworld really isn't a series of books, it is multiple series set in the same universe.
I like most of the books, but the City Watch series is my favourite, and I would also recommend starting there.
