The Color of Magic (Discworld, #1)
Terry Pratchett
★★★★· Published 1983· 267 pages· read 2024
The very first Discworld, with a hapless wizard playing tour guide to the disc's first tourist. Very silly in the best way, if a bit rougher than the later books.

★ 5Guards! Guards! (Discworld, #8)
Terry Pratchett
Pratchett's City Watch arrives, a dragon terrorizes Ankh-Morpork, and it's both hilarious and weirdly wise. A great place to start Discworld.
★ 5Dealing with Dragons (Enchanted Forest Chronicles, #1)
Patricia C. Wrede
Princess Cimorene is bored of being a proper princess, so she runs off to keep house for a dragon instead. I loved this as a kid — funny, fizzy, and quietly feminist.
★ 5Alanna: The First Adventure (Song of the Lioness, #1)
Tamora Pierce
Alanna disguises herself as a boy to train as a knight. I devoured this whole series growing up.
