Discover Sir Terry Pratchett's Discworld, the beloved comic fantasy universe that’s brimming with wit, wisdom, and wonder. Start where it all began in the seminal novel The Color of Magic, which follows the misadventures of the inept wizard Rincewind as he serves as tour guide to Twoflower, Discworld's first-ever sightseer. The hapless duo’s journeys continue in The Light Fantastic and Sourcery, where the scale of world-threatening hazards (and accompanying absurdities) increase exponentially. You’ll get over 35 Discworld novels in all, touching all corners of this whimsical realm and all manner of its denizens, and you’ll help Room to Read with your purchase!

I have never tried to deDRM kobo ebooks so wanted to ask: does the deDRM plugin that is used with calibre to remove kindle DRM work for kobo? And does it work with latest version of kobo desktop app? Amazon is making it so difficult to remove DRM nowadays, I am wondering whether I should shift to kobo.

As to the whole moving to Kobo thing, they have (in my opinion) one of the best sets of eReader devices right now. Their files are basically epub, the DRM is pretty easy to strip even without a physical eReader, just using the desktop app.

Their eReaders handle side loaded content fantastically; most just throw series in a big pile without respecting series order or even that some are in a series together, but with Calibre you can easily set what order they are in and have a spot where you filter by series on the device. I’m happy to answer questions or we have a community at !kobo@lemmy.world too.

There’s 2 plugins in the DeDRM/NoDRM bundle. You want the Obok plugin for Kobo. I have used it successfully within the last month with everything up to date.
