A book club about Terry Pratchett's Discworld series where fans can meet monthly to share annotations, reviews, adulations, favourite quotes from all of the 36+ novels of the series.
As Death would say, let it be a "A PLACE WHERE THE FALLING ANGELS MEET THE RISING APES"
Come join us and preety soon you won't be alone in laughing out loud while reading a Discworld novel in public!
Hopefully discussions will verge off to completely (un)related topics and create equally interesting 'polymorphic' tangents about
"Is crime best addressed by legalizing it, regulating it, and allowing thieves and assassins to control theft and murder?"
or
"Vetinari's private life"
or
"The novel you would suggest to a Pratchett virgin"
Movie screenings, talks for a theatrical production of one of Discworld novels, fundraising events are also so keep checking back for details and in the meantime, spread the word. A $2 charge is kept for each meetup event to cover the cost of keeping this group with meetup.
See you at the meetups!

Hey Pratchettiers
That time again...time for decorated oak tree in a pot, strings of paper sausages, and, of course, a visit by the Hogfather! Since 36th of December is too far away (not to mention impossible in our Roundworld) and christmas season is busy for us, hope Jan 10th is good everyone to come together for a Hogwatch party with the Discworld Guild!

“Terry Pratchett is by far my favorite author, I was introduced to his work by a friend who was repeatedly tossed out of Calculus class for laughing out loud while reading behind his math book.”
