I started with Reaper Man and (see discussion above) wouldn't recommend it - I enjoyed it enough to read others, but I knew I was missing something, and *crucially* I didn't laugh much. Any votes for Wyrd Sisters? It's early, but it's not so far off what becomes later canon that it would throw you. Guards Guards is definitely my other one of choice.
A friend of mine, also Discworld fan, interviewed TP for a local paper and he agreed with her (not for the interview) that Rincewind isn't much of a character, which managed to put me off rereading the first couple. Also: Eric. Bah.
