My first foray into the Discworld, I was surprised by how funny this was, but on the otherhand slightly let down by how simple the writing style is. It's one of the first books in the series so I'm curious to see if they get more complicated further into the series, either way I enjoyed my time with it.
It's certainly the only book I've read that has the same tone as Monty python, yet in saying that there's little bits of philosophy and world views sprinkled in here and there that kept me interested, and the characters although all quite similar and one note; were nevertheless endearing.
