I thought Discworld is a comic fantasy? So says Wikipedia. I've only heard his name yesterday, when my mom mentioned of his death on the news. She thought I've read his work, which I haven't. I dug around an ebook forum where I usually go to when wanting to find ebooks. I can't easily get foreign books at the local bookstores, not only are they scares, they are extremely ridiculously expensive too. Well thank God, I found the last available link to his 51 work?! Strangely, Wikipedia says there's only 41 work. Maybe 41 books for Discworld series, while the rest are probably on other subjects. I'm not sure who counted wrong here, since I'm still in the middle of the download process, I'll find out soon enough once I've extracted it. According to Wikipedia, there's 1 title said due for release this year. It could be much sought following his recent passing.

40 books in Discworld series, the total number of books he wrote is around 70.

70? Oh WOW! Amazing! That is probably as much as the books Clive Cussler wrote alone and/or collaborate. And speaking of this author, I've only read 1/5 of the collection I've built. I haven't started reading that Discworld book series I downloaded earlier. I'll start once I finish reading a light reading I'm nearing the end of.
