Goodbye mismatched paperbacks
You can get them individually or in smaller sets too. I've been gradually collecting them for birthdays and Christmas, got the witches and the city watch books now. The covers are gorgeous and the books are surprisingly lightweight for hardbacks so still comfortable to read on the go. I'm going to get the whole set eventually I love the collection.
I'd like to think that if he were still around, the "complete set" would be a bunch of wildly mis-matched books, some with the author's name misspelled on the cover and a few with cigarette ads in the middle of the book.
God I miss sir pratchett
I really would like the Ukrainian Discworld covers, those look beautiful.
Yeah I finally own them all, and wish I had the time to reread them. For some reason I still want to buy this.
I have a full set of first editions, some of which are even signed, I never got organised to get PTerry to sign the rest, but I would still love these as well.
There is something special about having a proper matching set. I have re purchased lots of my Tolkien collection to do this over the years.
I would love this for Redwall, but there's something about all the mismatched paperbacks that feels very "Discworld" to me. It's all thrown together, but it's managing to keep working anyway.
Also nostalgia, I got started by my aunt deciding to give me all her Discworld books one day, just paperbacks in a box.
Perhaps, but it really wreaks havoc on my bookshelf organization.
I feel like The Librarian would take a lot of pleasure in finding University students with pristine collections and slipping in beaten up old paperbacks among them every now and then. The students think it's a magic field around Unseen University but it's actually an orangutan.
