What's your favourite Discworld book, and were there any that you were really dissapointed by?

Modern man calls walking more quickly in the same direction down the same road “change.”
The world, in the last three hundred years, has not changed except in that sense.
The simple suggestion of a true change scandalizes and terrifies modern man. -Nicolás Gómez Dávila -
Best; Don't make me choose, damnit
Probably a Vimes book, as they are the most interesting for comparing between worlds and Vimes is the most cynical bastard ever written 
Worst: Eric; I don;t like the Rincewind books, but that one just doesn,t interest me. It's funny, sure, but not that interesting.You just wasted six ... no, seven ... seconds of your life reading this sentence. -

Strange. IMHO Eric, Reaperman and Mort were the weakest.
[The very worst is the children's book "Is That My Cow?" It is awful!

Thief of Time, Interesting Times and Night Watch are the best...oh yeah and the first two Tiffany Acking triology: Wee Free Men and Hat Full of Sky.Comment

Guards Guards and Small Gods are my favorites. Some of the more recent ones have been not as good.

Hurm, I don't know that I've been really disappointed by any Discworld book.
In addition to other likes mentioned above, I'll add Soul Music, Moving Pictures, and I can't believe no one listed Hogfather.Those who would give up Essential Liberty to purchase a little Temporary Safety, deserve neither Liberty nor Safety. - Ben Franklin

Soul Music or Small Gods are best, though Thief of Time is in the running.
Worst...Strata, if you count it."In the beginning was the Word. Then came the ******* word processor." -Dan Simmons, HyperionComment
