I'm not quite sure which spoilers you're talking about really. The fact that certain characters and/or races
exist? I suppose you could make an argument for Equal Rights/The Wee Free Men/A Hat Full of Sky/Wintersmith/I Shall Wear Midnight instead of just the latter four, with the understanding that Equal Rights can probably go anywhere except last.
In any case, while I definitely disagree that the first two books are to be avoided since I think they're quite good,[1] I also think The Wee Free Men is much better.
[1] Mort is quite forgettable if you ask me though. Moving Pictures, Soul Music and The Last Continent were also quite blah…
