Frequently Asked Questions
What is the best Discworld Witches reading order?
For the main Witches arc, start with Wyrd Sisters and continue through the Granny Weatherwax and Nanny Ogg books.
Do I need to read Discworld in publication order first?
No. The Witches arc works as its own Discworld path, although publication order is still a good option for completists.
