Every month (or so, schedule permitting), @grace, @junipertheory, @balina and I read, review and rank another book in Terry Pratchett's Discworld series of comic fantasy novels. Why rank them? Because we need to know, objectively, once and for all, which one is the best one, and we might as well be thorough about it.

Our episode of MEN AT ARMS just went live today! You can listen to it, as well as our past episodes, at http://anchor.fm/discpod. We don't run ads or anything like that-- this is purely friends having fun. If you like the Discworld series, or you just want to hear four American trans dykes shoot the shit about British literature, give it a listen!
