Me neither.

What type of books are they? There certainly seem to be a lot of them.

They started out as straight up parodies of fantasy, but evolved a very human and often dark touch. I always recommend people start with Guards! Guards! and read the City Watch series in order. Night Watch is my favourite novel ever.

it's very sharp social satire and wonderful stories that are funny as hell. Or it turns into that about 6-7 books into the series (which had about 40)

the first few books aren't very good, though
