This is my first time trying out a Discworld novel and I’m super happy I did. I’m not far into the novel, but I’m already loving it. It takes high fantasy and mixes in hillarity, something I’ve not really found in high fantasy. I’m a Terry Brooks Shannara fan, since the '90’s, and it takes itself so serious. Discworld is just silly fun like Douglas Adams doing Fantasy or Monty Python writing a book. I’m absolutely loving it and assuming it continues I’m absolutely checking out other Discworld books.

Anyone have any suggestions on other fun silly fantasy books like Discworld, or is Discworld the top of the pile?

    I am a massive fan of Discworld and found that, while Discworld is the cream of the crop, the NPCs series by Drew Hayes and Greg Costikyan’s “One Quest, Hold The Dragons” , and “Another Day, Another Dungeon” really hit the humorous fantasy sweet spot for me.
