I'd also say that the first couple of books are not the best, and he hadn't really found the 'Discworld style' yet.
The Discworld books aren't really a series, they are a collection of sub-series set in the same universe. Pick the sub-series that sounds most interesting, and read the first in that.
There is a list of sub-series here:

It is interesting that the City Watch books are listed first. They are my favourite, and the one I would recommend to start with. I wonder if they are the most successful.

Many of the sub-series have little or no connection to others. There is very little that I would consider 'spoilers' between different sub-series.
