Publisher Description
Join three nerds as we do a book club style read-through of Sir Terry Pratchett's Discworld novels and related works, in publication order. We've got a variety of voices and takes, and will occasionally have special guests to discuss key points in the Discworld series.
Previous description
The Compleat Discography is a chronological read-through podcast of Terry Pratchett’s Discworld books. Aaron and Ana (and guests) lead Justen through a first read-through of the Discworld series. Here's the catch: While Ana and Aaron have read 40 books, they haven't read the last one.
Also, sometimes we talk about other books and put them on here.

Footnotes
- ↑ Under the name of sister podcast The Babylon Podject
- ↑ Sort by this column to get episodes in the Discworld publication order. Generally we leave this blank for non-Discworld books (and episodes about other topics), but we've added numbers with an "LT" prefix so the Locked Tomb episodes can be sorted together.
- ↑ 3.0 3.1 3.2 These episodes were referred to as "The Compleat Thanography", as they are a digression to talk about the Locked Tomb series.
- ↑ Aaron's kid and a big wee hag in her own right.
- ↑ Justen made another mistake.
