Publisher Description

Join us as we read through all 41 of the fantastical and outrageous Discworld novels! New episodes every 2 weeks.

Further Information

Format

  • Each episode has unique cover art, designed by Nigel.
  • Tessa and Nigel individually rank the books within a sub-series, rather than overall. They rank the Rincewind and Witches novels in episode 23, having read up to Carpe Jugulum.

Trivia

  • Arose from Tessa's appearance on Hyperfixations, one of Nigel's other podcasts, where she talked about Discworld.
  • Started out doing their own order of the books, but as of around episode 15 seem to have settled into publication order.
  • There have been no new episodes since February 2023.
