Sam challenges Dan to read his first two Discworld novel, and in this episode, we discuss both Pyramids and Guards Guards and compare views.
SPOILER ALERT: This episode contains spoilers. We strongly recommend reading both books before listening.
Pyramids and Guards Guards are books 7 and 8 in Terry Pratchett's Discworld series. We discuss why Sam felt these were a good starting point for Dan to enter the world and how Dan found both books, before delving into conversations on Pratchett's writing style, his relative strengths and weaknesses, and his considerable legacy and influence on the genre.
