With regard to the OP, if you're not starting with The Colour of Magic I think you should seriously consider starting with The Wee Free Men instead. I don't think Guards! Guards! is that great or anything; in that case you might just as well skip straight ahead to Men At Arms.
I'll disagree about starting with Wee Free Men. You're better off reading Carpe Jugulum before and because of the spoilers (and there are quite a bit), you'll want to read other books before that. Also, the Tiffany Aching books should not be read until after you are familiar with Discworld.

That's the problem reading at random. You don't know what you are getting and what should have been read first.
