Your voice is iconic. I think you should be an audiobook narrator.

Really LOVING these 3-min recommendations! Thanks Jay! (And I now picked up some Discworld books!)

@CapturedInWords 9 месяцев назад

Glad you like them! I'm working on getting bunch of these 3 min recommendations filmed soon so that I have a backlog of videos ready in order to focus on other longer content too :) Thanks Bruce!

@gregsquires6201 9 месяцев назад

Already read them, and they're amazing. One of my favorite series. The humor makes every book a joy to read.

@CapturedInWords 9 месяцев назад

Discworld is incredible! I haven't read them all yet but every single one I've read has been so great, and you're right, the humor makes them so enjoyable

@darcyking9116 9 месяцев назад

Same! I think truckers was my favourite

@indyman_123 9 месяцев назад

"A timeless masterpiece that you need to read." That's it. PERIOD. Discworld is so unique that it feels more than just fantasy. And of course, the humor is pretty much unparalleled imo. Another great vid, Jay. Keep it going!

Recommend the Shannara series in 3 minutes.

Just started with Mort, and I can tell Pratchett really does have a unique style that’s just so fun to read. I literally can’t put it down. So glad I started.

@RCSVirginia Месяц назад

Though I have never read Terry Pratchett before, I ran across some of his works in paperback at an estate sale yesterday for fifty cents a piece, so I picked up a dozen of them. Now, just to find time to read them.

@Lex-cp5eg 2 месяца назад

Cool gimmick with the timing. Works perfectly here!! I started Discworld in March/April with Mort. What can I say, I’m dark and mysterious like that. I loved it. But had a hard time paying attention as I was going through a lot, and mostly listened to it as an audiobook to fall asleep. Can’t wait to dive back in and find out more about this zany world sometime soon!!

@generalmagma1797 9 месяцев назад

I was so suprised when this video popped up on my reccommendations, thank you this was a great video. I never read them but grew up with them (in a ceertain way) cause my mother has all the books on the shelve, she loves Prattchett so much and I´m planning to read them in the near future after finishing some other books

@CapturedInWords 9 месяцев назад

Thanks for watching! Very cool your mother read Pratchett! I always wished my parents were into reading too. I hope you enjoy Discworld!

@giladpellaeon1691 3 месяца назад

"Hogfather" is my personal favorite. The Discworld's version of Santa (Hogfather) goes missing on Hogswatch Night (Christmas Eve) and Death takes on the role to keep belief in the Hogfather going while Death's granddaughter, Susan, investigates the disappearance. Death falls deep into the role because people are happy to see him. Highly recommend, I read the novel or watch the movie nearly every Christmas season.

Great summarization of a fabulous series! Well done! ⭐

@CapturedInWords 9 месяцев назад

Thanks, glad you enjoyed!

@dominicwyartt3598 5 месяцев назад

I bloody love this series so much can’t stop reading it I keep saying just one more just one more I’m 13 books in

@beaupeterson8690 9 месяцев назад

New to Terry Pratchet, which book would you recommend I read first?

@aname7286 6 месяцев назад

There are a few places you can start but I went with "Guards! Guards!" and I had a BLAST!

@petebarger2149 9 месяцев назад

Love Pratchett's work. Discworld rules!

@LukeAdler 9 месяцев назад

Discworld is the best! I've enjoyed these books more than almost any others out there. More people need to give them a read!

@birgertales 9 месяцев назад

I plan to start with Mort, since I find Death very interesting :) Maybe you could do a 3min for books by David Eddings? :)

@caewing85 9 месяцев назад

I love Discworld. I didn’t think I would since I’m not a fan of satire but this works.

@CapturedInWords 9 месяцев назад

I feel like there's likely a Discworld book for everyone :)

@osutton23 9 месяцев назад

Where did you get the picture at 2:08 looks like it combines two of my favourite things Bruegel and Pratchett!

@CapturedInWords 9 месяцев назад

I found that piece on ArtStation. It's by Rimma Deli, here's a link: www.artstation.com/artwork/mDA9G8

@brimstonesulfur5013 8 месяцев назад

Recommend The Final Days of the White Flower II series

@Jdadd218 9 месяцев назад

I’ve read a few. But “small gods” is by far the best

@misterrcommenter 6 месяцев назад

What would be youre recommended reading order for this series. You where talking about making one in youre completed fantasy series top 15 but I can't find it on the channel.

@KidIndigo1 9 месяцев назад

Great segment highlighting a truly gifted, sharp storyteller. I've liked all the Discworld novels I've read so far, and look forward to reading all of them (a LOT of novels!). Thanks, Jay, for yet another Captured in Words entry!

@CapturedInWords 9 месяцев назад

Thanks for watching! And I agree, all of the Discworld novels I've read I've enjoyed. Pratchett is such a clever storyteller, and I look forward to eventually reading all of them!

@RussellHank-t3t 2 месяца назад

Warlock Series by Christopher Stasheff. It's politics, religion, witchcraft and technology

@Robatk-s8j 9 месяцев назад

I would hazard a guess at having read about half of them, but Pratchett is hands down my favourite author. Favourite books are either Mort or Small Gods. Discovered that I have Pyramids, which I don't think I've read before, so going to be starting that soon.

@goldstarx100 8 месяцев назад

Can you do one for the dark tower series?

@lnsflare1 4 месяца назад

I'd love to see a 3 minute recommendation for the Riddle-Master trilogy by Patricia McKillip, if you haven't time one already. Or maybe The Deed of Paksenarrion trilogy by Elizabeth Moon.

@CapturedInWords 4 месяца назад

Planning on reading the Riddle-Master trilogy soon!

@hannahanna2121 9 месяцев назад

I read Mort last year and loved it- yet to tackle the rest.

@CapturedInWords 9 месяцев назад

Mort was my first Discworld book as well! Really love the Death books, and all the others I've read so far have been worth it as well. Guards Guards is one of my absolute favorites

@dominicwyartt3598 5 месяцев назад

Cannot stop reading this series I’ve done 7 of them so far and I can’t stop it’s kind of annoying as there is other things I’d like to read but it’s like the librarian keeps putting the next volume in my hand when finish one

@IndiaTides 9 месяцев назад

I start them and put them down after reading 50 pages. I couldn't complete them.

@bcfortenberry 9 месяцев назад

I’ve read a good bit and it’s absolutely wonderful. Reading Hogfather for Christmas 🎄

@CurieBohr 9 месяцев назад

Your book recommendations are great!

Thanks!!

@elif-tp4yv 9 месяцев назад

I will start Discworld in January with The Colour of magic 😊

@AmandaWinford 9 месяцев назад

I love them all, but The Amazing Maurice and his Educated Rodents is my favorite.

@TheAyeAye1 9 месяцев назад

Pratchett was amazing. I got all his stuff in hardback starting in the Nineties and enjoyed it all hugely. Vimes is one of my favorite characters in fiction. My one misgiving would be how much the brain disorder that killed him affected his writing in the last six or seven years of his life. I tend to think of his work as a marriage that was long and wonderful that had a couple of bad years at the end. I'd recommend just stopping at UNSEEN ACADEMICALS.

@gettothepoint_already3858 5 месяцев назад

No I will not be reading these books

@CapturedInWords 5 месяцев назад

lol ok

@awedwards08 9 месяцев назад

The first Discworld book I read (Guards! Guards!) I was kinda like "meh that was pretty good, but I was ready for it to be over". Kinda figured that would be my last Terry Pratchett book at least for a while. But after a couple weeks I found myself missing those characters and that special British humor that he does so well. And now I pretty much always have a Discworld book nearby. Discworld is the type of thing you grow to appreciate more and more as you continue to spend time there.

@scottjasper5424 9 месяцев назад

I've read six of them this year and definitely plan on reading more. They are easy to read, but are also deep at the same time.
