Top 5 Terry Pratchett novels

I must say I absolutely love the books that feature the witches of Lancre. Pratchett's given them (Granny + Nanny) personalities that make them very enjoyable to read about. I just finished reading Maskerade, which was absolutely marvellous. My remaining four favourites are:
Monstrous Regiment
Wee Free Men
Thief of Time
Soul Music

Thief of Time

How did you know? I guess you are using headology. 
And yes, I'm a huuuuuuge fan of all the witches. I don't know why, but every time I read one of their books, I feel grate. They are funny, interesting, and with every read I learn something new. I love all the characters and... Ah well... You probably got it. But my all - time favourite is Maskarade.

Greebo is also good in L&L

I think my favourites are the watch novels too Because of Vimes ofcourse but also because of Detritus and his Piecemaker (ow and Cheery too naturally )
I really like the wizards too (especially Ridcully ) so I can't wait untill Unseen Academicals comes out

And I can't wait for Academicals either! I've waited so long for a football (or soccer)- parody!
hello out there (...-well, sorry for my English, all serious grammar and spelling mistakes, you know, we german-speaking people... )
Since I am currently re-reading my whole Disc-Collection I just became aware of your wonderful page (nope, I never was looking for Discworld stuff on the internet, so there is still a lot, a lot to explore for me) and enjoyed scanning through the topics
well, UNTIL I realized that my every-time favourite wasn't listed at all (or, have I just missed it?)-
so I just HAD to register and vote for it
1) Sourcery
is still my favourite as Rincewind developes a wide range of surprising qualities and even reveals philosophical potential. At the end I had the strong feeling that deep in his mind he might have understood better than most of the others what "wiz(z)ardry" really meant. +all the characters always seemed extremely vivid to me. can't help it, Rincewind is a unique character there - and the book certainly has depths that make it worth to be read again and again
2) is Small Gods (because the idea of a thousand small gods waiting for their chance out there really impressed me ... or rather, made me aware of the fact XD)
and from there on, I guess, anything featuring DEATH - you just have to love him =)
