Years ago I read a disc world book for the first time, the wee free men, I can't remember much except I loved it.. Now I've bought the colour of magic and planning to slowly read them all. Is there a certain order recommended? I was planning to go by chronological order but thought I'd ask :)

STP felt that he himself was "discovering what happened" (a JRRT phrase) as he wrote, so I read them chronologically, in the same order the author did (so to speak.) There are a lot of other good options for reading order, and few bad ones, but that's what I always tell people to do.
