Men At Arms. I've read at least a dozen pratchett books before this, and it's my favourite so far. I finished around twenty books last year, will compile a list sometime. When I'm done with Men At Arms I'll start A Connecticut Yankee In King Arthur's Court, very excited for that - a Mark Twain scifi!

I fucking love Pratchett, hands down my favorite fantasy author. So immersive, and so comedic at the same time. Would defenitely recommend all of his books if you are into fiction.

I used to listen to the Tim Ferriss podcast, and Ryan Holiday was on it a couple of time iirc, talking about stoicism and whatnot. What's some of the main takeaways you got from Obstacles?

Have you fellas read any Douglas Adams? He's just as witty and entertaining as Pratchett. You've probably heard of the Hitchhikers Guide To The Galaxy, but didja know it's actually a 5 book series? Some good shit. The audiobook version of the series is great also (first book is read by Stephen Fry and the rest of the series by Martin Freeman (dude from The Office, The Hobbit + Fargo)).
Also, comedic in a darker way, but also some high-tier fantastic literature; Lolita. Beautifully written. You'd think it'd be hard to get you to root for a pedo, but somehow this Russian fella makes that happen. It's an awe-inspiring book (and one of the all time greatest, according to many lit snobs), don't be put off by the title.
