Any Discworld Fans?

If so, how many of them have you read, and which are your favourite and least favourite, and why?
I came late to Sir Terry, and am currently about half-way through the books. I read the first seven in the series in order, but then started reading them in any order. I think my favourite so far is probably 'Thief of Time', because of the brilliant premise about pumping time from where it's not needed to where there's never enough. Least favourite - probably 'Carpe Jugulum', which I found over-long and heavy going. I did like Mightliy Oats, though. I'm currently half-way (almost exactly) through 'Moving Pictures'.

I've read all of the adult Discworld novels.

My favourite is usually the last one I read, which would be Raising Steam at the moment.

My least favourite is probably Unseen Academicals. But it might be Night Watch.

Having been asked by some boys in my class back in the 1980s if I had read 'Truckers', and hearing this question enthusiastically endorsed by several other boys, I read it. After that I read my way through the lot. I really enjoyed 'Raising steam' but  oh, it is such a shame there will be no more Disc World books.

There are very few things of Sir Terry that I have not read.

Susan Doris is the other current poster that I know is a Discworld fan but it would be lovely if out of the bluest bluey blue Gonnagle, another fan, might suddenly contribute to this thread, as then I would know he was OK.

I think the death of Sir Terry is the first celebrity death that made me feel a personal loss, because we didn't just lose him but all the characters in his books. It's a bit silly, but I felt I knew Sam Vimes personally.
