Terry Pratchett
The Colour of Magic -> The Light Fantastic -> Sourcery -> Mort, the apprentice to Death -> Wyrd Sisters -> Guards! Guards!
I'm currently reading the last one. All the books are very good, although "Wyrd Sisters" seemed a bit boring, but I'm really enjoying "Guards!" right now.

I started reading another collection by Poe. Now I see him as a pioneer of the horror genre and an ideological inspiration for Lovecraft. There are still many unnecessary words and elaborate expressions, typical of old books, but overall it's not bad, and in some places, you can see attempts to write something satirical, but it's more of a humor aimed at his contemporaries. The horror stories are better, although more naive, but the atmosphere is well-captured.

Started reading "Steel Rat". Why bother? As usual, I read the first paragraph, and then everything becomes a blur; I woke up on page eighty. 146/10. Although, I'd like more space, future, xenofauna, and space opera elements.
And I also caught myself having a funny glitch in my brain. I'm reading in Russian because I'm not sure if I can understand such a long text in the original language. But at the same time, I simultaneously perceive all the more or less significant names and titles, both adapted and simply transliterated, in two languages. In some cases, the Russian version actually looks better than the original.

I don't remember anything like that.

Herbert Wells, "The Time Machine." It's necessary to alternate between rest and exertion. Oh, it's a pity that schools don't pay enough attention to science fiction; the themes are more interesting there, and the atmosphere is more fun.

It’s no wonder that schoolchildren are such disgusting creatures.

The Colour of Magic -> The Light Fantastic -> Sourcery -> Mort, Death's apprentice -> Reaper Man -> Witches Abroad -> Guards! Guards!

Suddenly decided to switch to other series?
I remember they wanted to make a series based on the Guards, I don't know how things are going with that.

The author sometimes makes references to other series within a single series, so I try to follow the order in which the books were written.

although this is an older version. maybe there's a newer one.

I used this scheme.
Your scheme is more complete, but mine includes the dates the books were written.
By the way, as of now:
Terry Pratchett
The Colour of Magic -> The Light Fantastic -> Sourcery -> Mort -> Wyrd Sisters -> Guards! Guards! -> Eric -> Witches Abroad

I think it would be better to do it in cycles. The plot is memorable anyway, so you can find/remember the references later.

Sometimes there are subtle references. And in general, I like the variety. First, one set of heroes, then another... Then you remember the first ones. Don't get fixated ;)

"Who is on the other end of the line?"

About pranksters.

I finally started reading Stephen King, beginning with some collection of short stories. Wow, it's great. Lovecraft is more interesting and sophisticated, while King is simpler and bluntly focuses on horror, but I'm enjoying it.
I've gotten hooked on scary books. Especially American ones. It's creepy, but just enough to scare the brain, and besides, it's across the ocean, a long time ago, and not true.
