I avoided those books for a long time as I thought they were going to be made up explanations for how things worked in the Discworld. They're actually a wonderful set of stories and jumping off point for discussing a variety of topics. Heavily recommend them to people who may have been in the same position as me.
- ZeroGravitas 6y agoYes, they're a good mix of Pratchett content and well written popular science coverage of concepts. As well as the science ones there a Folklore of Discworld which could easily have been a throwaway novelty but was a great unsight into the real folklore that Pratchett references and lampoons.
