11	!!The main Discworld novels, in order of release. Brackets denote date of UK publication and main character(s) -- standalone indicates that it is not part of a series. [[note]] Some sources (including the back covers of the Collector's Library editions) group the standalones based on concepts rather than characters, so ''Pyramids'' and ''Small Gods'' are the "Gods" or "Ancient Civilisations" series, while ''Moving Pictures'', ''The Truth'' and ''Monstrous Regiment'' join the Moist books as the "Industrial Revolution" series.[[/note]]
