The Demon Cycle vs The Discworld Series

The author build a world where demons arise each night and the only way to save yourself from them is by drawing wards.

A young scribe's life is about to change,. a small simple story that turns very grand very fast, with epic plot twists along the way. If you haven't read books by Peter V Brett before, I can highly recommend this series.

Terry Pratchett has a way of putting every day situations into new contexts that makes you laugh.

The books are (while not exactly based on each other) adding each a new facet to the imagined world of the Discworld.

Diskworld runs by its own rules, which sir Pratchett managed to describe and abide by. The whole thing is extremely hilarious and absurd while at the same time managing to be completely logical.

There is an incredible amount of references to books/films/music/pop culture/historical events and figures/whatever else you can think of. Some of them are quite obvious, some you might get only a few years after reading the book - when you learn some small random tidbit of history or watch a particular scene in the movie. It's not only extremely enjoyable but also makes you feel proud when you suddenly connect the dots and figure out some obscure reference.
